Patching Basics Exercises

For some reason entering “Install-Module -Name PSWindowsUpdate -Force” into the powershell results in a “Administrator rights are required to install modules…” error message. Has anyone gotten this error before and figured out what to do in order to fix this?

Hey there - it sounds like you opened a regular PowerShell window, rather than selecting the PowerShell (Admin) option at Step 1.

Thank you, I thought this was the issue but I can’t seem to find a PowerShell Admin option or is it under a different name?

Thank you so much! Turns out I completely misread the right click part of the instructions.
