A: When using the plugins in Icinga: [According to the Icinga documentation](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-2/latest/doc/06-distributed-monitoring/#agent-setup-on-windows-configuration-wizard) the Icinga Agent runs as the `Network Service` user by default. This may result in `0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)` messages for some plugins. In this case, we recommend running the Icinga Agent under the `Local System` account, as plugins such as [updates](https://github.com/Linuxfabrik/monitoring-plugins/tree/main/check-plugins/updates) require higher privileges to perform certain lookups. Have a look at [#695](https://github.com/Linuxfabrik/monitoring-plugins/issues/695#) for details.
