Yes, there are OFTEN good reasons to control the flow of updates, one reason being simply to wait to make sure an update is stable.
If you are using the Windows version, a way to prevent updates is to increase the UAC settings in Windows. This may not block the notifications but can be used to prevent auto-downloading of updates.
If you are using the Mac version, there is no way to stop the notifications but you can simply reject the download of the update.Have Questions? Check out these FAQs (links now fixed):- Where to find a Help Guide for Quicken for Mac?

No, Ido not want updates because every time I update, some ofmy accounts get out of balance. Speaking of balances,when I check that I want my balance to show up in a column on my registerm it gives me a huge number that has nothing to do with the balance that shows in my bank. This has happened recently after an update as I used to be able to compare ending balances with my bank statement, but now I cannot.
Anybody have a way to correct this?
I have used Quicken for many years, but have not been happy since Intuit departed.
