​Thanks for your speedy reply, Stuart !​

To be more specific, I'm running LibreOffice on a 64-bit Windows 8.1
machine with three local accounts installed, mine having administrator's
privileges according to the User Account section of the Control Panel, the
which I can confirm by the fact that the Windows UAC doesn't require me to
log in with another password when downloading, e g, LibreOffice from the LO
website....

This is not the first time I have encountered this problem, but I had hoped
that within the 4.4 series, I'd be able to update using the LO tool. Alas,
such was not the case....

Am I to understand from your reply that you yourself don't encounter this
problem when updating LO ?...
