Which PC account is used to download updates?

Hello Spiceheads.

I have a weird question, that I can't wrap my head around.

I have a proxy server sitting withing our network. I myself have FULL no limit internet, I can go to any site, and download anything.

When it comes to software updates like Wireshark or even Adobe, they fail. I have to use wireshark to find out exactly what URL the update is going through so that I can add this URL to a global allow list in the proxy.  Only then will the update work.

So my question, is why would i get the error "Proxy authentication required" when my username/account has full internet access through the proxy, when downloading any type of software update?


Thanks in advance.
