The user should have to option to bypass being prompted by the One Step Update Settings dialog

For most people they will be either be using the Password Vault with Direct Connect or not need to put in passwords for Express Web Connect/Express Web Connect +, and they will want to update all of the accounts they have previously set in the One Step Update Settings.

There isn't any need to prompt them with the One Step Update Settings dialog every time they run One Step Update.

There should a preference to turn off this prompting.

As an example, if I have only Express Web Connect/Express Web Connect + accounts then I should be able to start a One Step Update with Ctrl+1 or by clicking on the One Step Update icon, I shouldn't have to click through the One Step Update Settings dialog.

For people that using the Password Vault and Direct Connect, it should prompt only for that password (once per session).

For the rare case where the user is using Direct Connect, but not the Password Vault and therefore needs to enter the passwords, the One Step Update Settings dialog should be shown, no matter what the preference is set to.

    A touch confused — Did you leave a NOT out of this segment?

    … if I have only Express Web Connect/Express Web Connect + accounts … I should have to check through the One Step Update Settings dialog.

    @q_lurker Thanks, my bad typos! I think it is correct now.

    I don't need this option but will vote for it as an OPTION.. From my Main Screen I do an OSU by clicking "Update Now" and don't get the "Setting dialog" unless I click on "Settings". All 17 accounts are EWC…. I only do 1 OSU update per day but do need the ability to access settings when I want to select just specific FI's to update.

    THEN THE MAIN SCREEN UPDATE SHOWS THE CURRENT DATE AFTER THE UPDATE…

    I never quite figured out why in some data files whenever I click on OSU I always get the OSU Settings popup while in other files I never get it unless I manually select the OSU Settings option. I will note, however, that I only get the OSU Settings popup for the first OSU or Update Now that I do during a session. Successive OSUs or Update Nows in that same session never open that OSU Settings popup.

    It would be really nice to have the option to turn off the automatic opening of the OSU Settings popup when doing OSU or Update Now unless one specifically opts to have that popup open. So this idea has gotten my vote.

    I agree. When I log in to do an update, I immediately have to log in AGAIN … to do an update.
