I am using Pro 2014 desktop, it works for me, it even runs on Window 10. I have no desire or need to upgrade. i have turned off auto updates as i don't want an update to stop QB running on Win10. Every time i start up i get a dialog box saying "there's a new quickbooks software update waiting for you", and i select the install later option, but at some point i am going to select, by mistake, the default option "install now". I have searched through the ini file but can find no obvious way to disable this dialog box. Anyone got any ideas how i prevent this box appearing at start-up?

Hello there, ian36,

 

We're unable to turn off the dialog box. It will only go away once you update. However, since you've mentioned you don't need to, it will keep popping up.

 

If ever you change your mind, you can refer to the steps on this article to update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release: Update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release.

 

Here's another one for future reference: Fix QuickBooks Desktop Update Errors

 

I'll be right here if you have other concerns.
