How to simply allow client update without requiring updates

(I'm admin for our account)

I wanted to update my client to the latest version, and found that it wouldn't let me.  There is no "check for updates" option.  Downloading the full installer just launched the existing client and didn't do anything else.  I had to completely uninstall then run the installer.

I see where I can require update to the latest client for people in our org, but I don't really want to do that.  I just want to allow them to update it by "check for updates" or manual download.

What am I missing here?
