Can this be chosen during silent install?? A switch like /noupdates or something like it?? For companies who keep track of versioning not having the app prompt the user every time it opens would be great. #4146

Indication of the component responsible for "Check for updates" and pop-up Updates - the ability to disable it during silent installation would make it much easier to work with massive deployments of the application.

@IlnickiDaniel how does your company deploy storage explorer to users? How does your company keep users up to date?

Hello,

We deal with packaging and software distribution. We need to indicate installation commandline such as:

  1. StorageExplorer1.12.0.exe / VERYSILENT / NORESTART / NOUPDATES or

  2. indication of the component responsible for the disabled pop-up from Updates.

  3. Maybe there is some configuration file for disabling UpDates?

  4. Which version of StorageExplorer has the above solutions?

As the ultimate user cannot update the application himself.

After the application (packaging) is properly prepared, we send it via SCCM to hundreds or thousands of computers.

Kind regards,

Daniel (Daniel) Ilnicki Platform Management Specialist - Software Distribution/Packaging

@MRayermannMSFT I totally support @IlnickiDaniel 's point. In our organization software/updates are rolled out centrally via 3rd party tool "patch my pc". Updates are not pushed to the clients immediately but rather with a delay of 14 days.

Because of that Azure Storage Explorer reminds me every couple of minutes that there is already a new version (I'm not allowed to install by myself): image

It would be great if this check for updates could be switched off completely.
