Isn't the switching off of the message about the availability of the update discussed here proof that the user "knows" about the new update, but does not want to be repeatedly informed at every start?

emmrecs01 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 @Pšenda Possibly, or possibly not! It rather depends, I think, on when the "switching off" actually took place. I think we need @ellycolor to tell us. Also perhaps, why he/she has NOT updated.

emmrecs01 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 @ellycolor Thanks. But is there a particular reason you are still running an "old" version of the software?

ellycolor Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 The latest versions lag and freeze, even if I did performance changes in the settings menu. When I will use new equipment, I will use the new versions as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukee Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 On 10/12/2018 at 11:00 AM, mc-ar said: Hi everyone, For windows the solution was found - one need to set registry key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Serif\Affinity\Photo\1] "No Update Check"=dword:00000001 Can also be set via MSI property "NO_UPDATE_CHECK_PROPERTY" by assigning the value of "#1". But there is no obvious solution for osx... In the previous message there was an info about "network install tool" but I can't find any information about it... Is there is any universal solution for Win and Mac to disable update notification availabe in 1.6.x now? Thanks in advance. This registry edit does not work on the newest version. First, the path does not exist any more. It seems that the new path is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Affinity\Photo 2. Secondly, what should the registry key name should be? "No Update Check" or No Update Check? Both do not work anyways. Is there a new way how to achieve disabling the update window? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pšenda Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) No problem for MSI/EXE installation. P.S. If anyone is worried that by turning off the constant harassment/notification about the update, they will lose the information that there is an update at all, then just follow this thread: Edited April 6 by Pšenda Patrick Connor 1 Quote Affinity Store (MSI/EXE): Affinity Suite (ADe, APh, APu) 2.4.0.2301 Dell OptiPlex 7060, i5-8500 3.00 GHz, 16 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630, Dell P2417H 1920 x 1080, Windows 11 Pro, Version 23H2, Build 22631.3155.
