You didn't change anything on your computer, you're the only user and administrator but are still getting this error of "Updates are disabled by the administrator" ?

Following steps will help you to fix this issue easily:

1. Ensure you have administrator rights, you will need them
2. Use keyboard shortcut "*Windows + R*" to access "*Execute*" menu
3. Type "*regedit*" in the field to access to the registry editor
4. Go to *HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Policies\\Google\\*
5. If you see value *UpdateDefault* or *DefaultUpdate*, change it from 0 to 1
6. Restart Chrome and give it a new try

You can now update Chrome without any problem !
