DiRootsOne Updater UI

Updater Settings

By default, Updater Settings does not provide an option to disable automatic update checks. Administrators can change how often the updater checks by editing its configuration file:

  1. Go to %programdata%\DiRoots.DiRootsOne\Settings.
  2. Open updater.ini.
  3. Change CheckFrequency=2 to CheckFrequency=365, for example, to check less frequently.

For unattended deployments, automatic update checks can also be disabled with the UPDATER="FALSE" installer option shown above.

We recommend keeping DiRootsOne up to date. Support is not provided for outdated versions.
