VLC 媒体播放器^{(VLC media player)}无疑是当今同类产品中最好的之一。但我必须补充一点，VLC 媒体播放器^{(VLC Media Player)}并非没有问题。我们过去遇到的众多问题之一与无法更新VLC有很大关系。^(VLC)当您尝试更新VLC时，您会收到一条消息 –检查更新时发生错误^{(An error occurred while checking for updates)}。

检查VLC^(VLC)中的更新时出错

这对许多人来说可能是个问题，尤其是那些面临问题并需要最新版本来解决问题的人。那么问题是，我们是否有可能在不费吹灰之力的情况下解决更新问题？我们对此的回答是肯定的。好的，那么让我们开始吧。

确保^(Make)VLC未被^(VLC)防火墙阻止

有时您的防火墙^(Firewall)（在这种情况下为Windows Defender 防火墙^{(Windows Defender Firewall)}）会在您不知情的情况下奇怪地阻止VLC 。要解决此问题，您必须允许程序通过防火墙^(Firewall)，否则它将无法发送网络通信。

按Windows Key + I启动设置^(Settings)应用程序，然后单击更新和安全^{(Update & Security)}。

单击Windows 安全^{(Windows Security)}，然后打开 Windows Defender 安全中心^{(Open Windows Defender Security Center)}。这应该会启动Windows Defender防病毒和反恶意软件程序。然后，从这里选择防火墙和网络保护^{(Firewall & network protection)}。

最后，点击Allow an app through Firewall。

启动防火墙和网络保护^{(Firewall & network protection)}后，您现在应该会看到程序列表。只需^(Just)滚动浏览，直到您看到VLC。确保^(Make)勾选所有框，其中包括Private 和 Public^{(Private and Public)}。

完成此操作后，重新启动计算机，然后再次尝试升级VLC。打开 VLC^{(Open VLC)}，选择帮助^(Help)菜单，然后单击“检查更新^{(Check for Updates)}”。

以管理员身份运行VLC 媒体播放器^{(VLC Media Player)}

除非满足某些参数，否则为Windows 10^{(Windows 10)}设计的某些程序将无法完全运行。通常，通过简单地以管理员身份启动程序应该将事情设置为正常，这就是我们在这里要做的。

右键单击^{(Right-click)}VLC Media Player^{(VLC Media Player)}桌面图标，然后选择Run as administrator。或者，您可以再次右键单击^{(right-click)}该图标，然后单击Properties。单击“兼容性^{(Compatibility)}”选项卡，然后勾选“以管理员身份运行此程序^{(Run this program as an administrator)}”框。

单击“确定^(OK)”按钮，然后再次运行程序，希望现在可以按预期执行。

手动更新 VLC

如果以上所有内容都无法正常工作，那么请访问官方VLC 媒体播放器^{(VLC Media Player)}网站，并自己下载最新版本。安装它，瞧，你很高兴。

An error occurred while checking for updates in VLC

The VLC media player is no doubt one of the best of its kind available today. But I must add that VLC Media Player is not without its problems. One of the many issue we’ve come across in the past has much to do with the inability to have VLC updated. When you try to update VLC, you receive a message – An error occurred while checking for updates.

An error occurred while checking for updates in VLC

This can be a problem for many, especially those who are facing issues and require the latest version to sort them out. The question is, then, is it possible for us to fix the update problem without having to go the extra mile? Our answer to that is a resounding yes. OK, so let’s get down to it, then.

Make sure VLC is not being blocked by your Firewall

There are times when your Firewall, Windows Defender Firewall in this instance, just weirdly blocks VLC without you knowing. To fix this problem, you’ll have to allow the program to get past the Firewall or else it won’t be able to send out a network communication.

Launch the Settings app by pressing the Windows Key + I, then click on Update & Security.

Click on Windows Security, then Open Windows Defender Security Center. This should launch the Windows Defender anti-virus and anti-malware program. From here, then, select Firewall & network protection.

Finally, click on Allow an app through Firewall.

After launching Firewall & network protection, you should now see a list of programs. Just scroll through until you’ve seen VLC. Make sure that all boxes are ticked, which includes both Private and Public.

Once this is done, restart your computer, then attempt to upgrade VLC again. Open VLC, select Help menu and click “Check for Updates”.

Run the VLC Media Player as an administrator

Some programs designed for Windows 10 won’t work fully unless certain parameters are met. Usually, by simply starting the program as an admin should set things to normal, so that’s what we’re going to do here.

Right-click on the VLC Media Player desktop icon, then select Run as administrator. Alternatively, you could right-click on the icon again, then click on Properties. Click on the Compatibility tab, then tick the box that says Run this program as an administrator.

Click the OK button, then run the program again in hopes things will now perform as intended.

Manually update VLC

Should everything above fail to work, then how about visiting the official VLC Media Player website, and downloading the latest version yourself. Install it, and voila, you’re good to go.
