Age of Empires 3 update problem

[louisg]

I've had aoe for about 2 months, today I decided to download some mods for the game. When I was about to install the mod it warned me that the mod was designed for version 1.09, i tried to update the game but it tells me that i have to be signed into windows with an administrator account to update the game. My account IS the one with administrator rights. What can i do?

All you need to do is right click the update button and click on run as administrator, it just means that the file needs to be elevated to administrator before it can get access to the resources it needs to run
