How do I avoid automatic updates?
Deacon Bernie
:* I have been a Quicken customer for many years. Most of the time, I'm very satisfied; when I'm not I can figure out a work-around.
Recently, I've had major issues when Quicken issues an update and the program begins the process of updating when I'm in the middle of my daily work on Quicken. Of course, I want the updates but I would like to prepare for them. An email warning would be nice so that I don't go my own merry way. Thanks.

With UAC set to
Always Notify
or the
default
, Windows does
not
allow Quicken (or any other application) to update automatically without your approval.

To get to it go to Control Panel >User Accounts >Change User Account Settinsg. Hope that gets you to it easily and quickly!
