I have to update

You don't have to - if the current version suits you (you don't need new features or bug fixes), then don't update.

Each time I start a Affinity APP, the APP remembers me, that there is a new Version. I can´t choose to Update only each quarter, or each major Update. Or I can´t switch the function to look for updates OFF.

It sucks, when I send plentys of grafics from another program, for ex. XnView, to Affinity, that the APP starts with the notofication and dont open the grafics immediently, until ubcheck the notification.

I wan´t to work and not to get every small update.

If I send affinity-files to the APP they are made by the APP before the notificated update, so they work with the state of the art APP. At that time I don´t need the new features, until I deside it would be nice to have a look, whats new, or if I find a bug and if there is a solution in between my version or the latest update.

Also when I have in different times, during a day to open Affinity I have each time to check that notification. The APP doesn´t remember my desition.

press (alt+o)

Sorry, but I'm confused.

Press alt+o where? or when?

What does that shortcut do on your system? As far as I know it's not a standard shortcut in the Affinity applications.

The Alt + O keyboard (Windows) shortcut is equivalent to clicking OK button in the update reminder popup, which will close it without downloading the update.

So isn't it easier to press ESC?
