Provide a description of the new feature / enhancement

Even if I update PowerToys every time it asks, it feels like every other week there is a distracting pop-up in my notification center asking me to update. I only use PT for FancyZones and nothing else, and it's working perfectly for me, so I don't need to constantly update the software! Since the maximum deferring period is only 5 days, it's not a good solution. Please add a way to disable the update pop-ups permanently.

Yes, please. And/or streamline the whole update process so that I don't have to click 5 confirmations to install a new version.

@ednl Tracked by #10126 and #8828

For opting-out of updates / notifications, right now that is something we won't support. We want people on the latest and up-to-date.

We update once a month unless there is a blocking bug that we're seeing lots of reports on.

@crutkas Thanks. That is a strategic decision but unfortunately for me that means I will uninstall PowerToys. The unavoidable notification and 5 confirmation clicks is just too much.

@ednl
in 0.39 there will be just one time notification.
