Non-admins might receive unexpected UAC prompts when doing MSI repair operations

(Updated 11/26/25: Additional improvements were added to the Resolution section.)
A security improvement was included in the August 2025 Windows security update (KB5063875) and later updates to enforce the requirement that User Account Control (UAC) prompt for administrator credentials when performing Windows Installer (MSI) repair and related operations. This improvement addressed security vulnerability CVE-2025-50173.
As a result, after installing the August 2025 Windows security update and later updates, UAC prompts for administrator rights can appear for standard users in the following scenarios:
- Running MSI repair commands (such as msiexec /fu).
- Launching Autodesk applications, including some versions of AutoCAD, Civil 3D and Inventor CAM, or when installing an MSI file after a user signs into the app for the first time.
- Installing applications that configure themselves per user.
- Running Windows Installer during Active Setup.
- Deploying packages via Manager Configuration Manager (ConfigMgr) that rely on user-specific "advertising" configurations.
- Enabling Secure Desktop.
If a standard user runs an app that initiates an MSI repair operation without displaying UI, it will fail with an error message. For example, installing and running Office Professional Plus 2010 as a standard user will fail with Error 1730 during the configuration process.
Resolution:
After installing the September 2025 Windows security update (KB5065431) or later updates, UAC prompts will only be required during MSI repair operations if the target MSI file contains an elevated custom action. This requirement is further refined after installing Windows updates released on and after October 28, 2025, so that UAC prompts will only be required if the elevated custom actions are executed during the repair flow.
Installing the latest Windows updates will resolve this issue for apps that do not execute such elevated custom actions, such as Autodesk AutoCAD.
Since UAC prompts will still be required for apps that perform custom actions, after installing the September 2025 update, IT admins will have access to a workaround to disable UAC prompts for specific apps by adding MSI files to an allowlist. For details, see the KB article: Unexpected UAC prompts when running MSI repair operations after installing the August 2025 Windows security update.

Certain laws require Microsoft to protect children from harmful and illegal content on the internet. Microsoft is committed to creating tools for parents and guardians to help them in guiding their children’s digital experiences and protect them from harmful and illegal online content.
One of the available tools is web filtering, which lets a parent or guardian filter websites. Currently, Microsoft Edge is the only supported browser that provides this functionality within Microsoft Family Safety, allowing Edge to be used by default on the child’s device after web filtering is enabled. Once web filtering is enabled, a parent or guardian needs to approve other unsupported browsers (any browser other than Edge) before they can be used. This helps parents understand that different settings apply to other browsers when it comes to blocking inappropriate websites and filtering search results for their children.
The blocking behavior continues to work for unsupported browsers, however, when unsupported browsers update to a new version, the latest version of the browser cannot be blocked until we add it to the block list. Microsoft is currently adding the latest versions of unsupported browsers, to the block list. As a result, some browsers may temporarily appear unblocked during this update process. We're actively working to ensure all latest versions of browsers are blocked, reinforcing our commitment to parents and guardians.
As Microsoft continues to update the block list, we’ve received reports of a new issue affecting Google Chrome and some browsers. When children try to open these browsers, they shut down unexpectedly. However, the standard workflow is to prompt a parental approval message stating, “You’ll need to ask to use this app”. Once the approval is consented, the browser operates as intended. This issue is only observed when the Activity reporting feature is turned off.
Workaround: The browser shutdown issue can be temporarily mitigated by turning on Activity reporting under Windows settings in Family Safety. Parents will then be able to receive approval requests as expected.
Resolution:
- Temporary access to unsupported browsers: As of June 25, 2025, Microsoft included the latest versions of unsupported browsers into the Family Safety’s feature, and they are now blocked as intended. However, new versions of unsupported browsers released after this date might temporarily appear unblocked. This temporary gap will be resolved in the future, and this documentation will be updated to inform you when the full resolution is available.
- Missing parental consent prompt: Fixed in the July non-security preview update (KB5062663), released July 22, 2025. The fix is gradually rolling out and will be automatically enabled on devices with KB5062663 installed or later updates.
Affected platforms:
- Client: Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 11, version 22H2; Windows 10, version 22H2
- Server: None
