Currently Google Chrome is the most desired browser to navigate thanks to its simplicity of use, extensive catalog of extensions, development options and, in general, its versatility when used ..
The Google development group is constantly releasing new updates thinking about correcting holes that may be present, and even more so when we see the amount of ransomware that spreads through the network, especially using the browser as a filter.
When we use Google Chrome and want to update it, we will see an error like this, "Updates are disabled by the Chrome administrator" and it will be impossible to update the Google Chrome browser completely optimizing its security ..
Frequent use of Google Chrome allows us to observe other types of errors displayed during its update or use such as:
- An error occurred while checking for updates.
- Update check failed to start.
- An error occurred while checking for updates.
All these errors associated with Chrome browser and Google Chrome updates are disabled by administrator error.
TechnoWikis will give advice on how we can correctly eliminate this error and thus update our browser successfully..
Updates to Google Chrome are disabled by the administrator error on Windows 10 computers, and we can carry out previous actions such as:
- Delete programs (such as BrowseFox, SearchProtect, PullUpdate, SmartBar etc.) which have the power to change the settings and cause problems in the browser
- Detect malware and review antivirus, firewall, or parental control settings.
If all these settings have been checked and we still have this error in mind, we can use any of the solutions offered by TechnoWikis.
