Hi Group,
Well since I am receiving conflicting information (from other lists)
concerning Thunderbird accessibility, I installed a portable version
of 102.1.1 and told it to check for updates. When the updates are
downloaded and installed, I can see what if any accessibility issues
remain or have been addressed. When I am sure that they all if they
ever are, then I will install the permanent version to my system.
As of now 102.1.1 still has issues with the status bar. We shall
see.

When I
am running the portable version I want not to check for updates, I
set it not to do so in the general settings, just as you can in
the installed version. I also uncheck the check box not to notify
me of updates at startup. I am never asked.

This being the case, is there a way to create a .bat file with a
command line invocation of NVDA that would tell it not to check
for updates. I haven't needed to create archival portables for
some time, but when I do I don't even want them to ask me about
updating them. The main reason, besides needing NVDA briefly on
a machine where I choose not to install it, that I create
portable copies is to "freeze that version in time."
