Disabling Auto Update Tool Notifications
X-Win32 has an autoupdate feature which allows you to automatically be informed when the latest updates are available. Updates are generally infrequent and fix bugs while at the same time adding new features. However if you must disable the autoupdate feature (you are a system admin who deploys X-Win32 once a quarter for example):
There are several ways to disable updates. Please choose the way which is right for you.
During Installation
Post Installation
Completely remove the Update Tool
Command line msi option
You can disable autoupdating during a command line msi installation.
msiexec NOAUTOUPDATE="TRUE" /qn /i "X-Win32.msi"
XServer.config
To disable updates through XServer.config
- Edit %APPDATA%\StarNet\X-Win32\XServer.config
- Add the following line above /Configuration
<NoAutoUpdate>TRUE</NoAutoUpdate>
- Save the file.
Remove Updatetool.exe
Removing %PROGRAMFILES%\StarNet\X-Win32\Updatetool.exe will also disable updates.
Removing this tool will also remove the Update option from the system tray.
