Note that all of the commands above will perform ''local'' or ''global'' package installs according to the user's Administrator access level. E.g., if an update is found for a global package with a non-elevated user account, the updated version will be installed to the ''local'' package location, leaving the old version intact in the ''global'' package location. This behavior can be changed by calling the install command with the {{Path|-global}} option. | Note that all of the commands above will perform ''local'' or ''global'' package installs according to the user's Administrator access level.

This behavior can be changed by calling the install command with the {{Path|-global}} option. As of Octave 7.1.0 the {{Path|-global}} option also works with the {{Path|pkg update}} command.
