Disable Update popup

[sereshk]

Hello,
I've been using ABP for years without problems in Firefox, Pale Moon, Chrome and Chrome forks...
But in IE 11 everytime an update seems necessary, I get an annoying update query popup asking me to confirm an ABP update...happens even when I use the ABP homepage to directly install it from there for IE.
Is there any way to disable this?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Regards
sereshk

last dev build has support for disabling automatic updates

Thanks for the answers, but that is not really what I mean:
When I use the extension in Firefox or Chrome, I won't be asked to confirm an update. That's what I like!

In IE11 every other day a popup asks me to confirm the update. I presume that these are updates of definitions - or even the lists used (EasyList etc.) But whatever: I'd like to have those stopped.
A reminder now and again wouldn't be so bad; but these occur almost once a day...
Thanks.

it's exactly what you meant. Did you even try the first ?

or install that last dev build (see the second response) and disable the updates using

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKCU\Software\AdblockPlus]
"disable_auto_updates"="true"

Maybe I've misunderstood something but I think sereshk is looking to have the updates happen automatically in the background; my quick read through of the above links made it sound like the dev build adds a feature to just completely disable updates: "There is now a value in a registry key HKCU\Software\AdblockPlus called disable_auto_updates. It needs to be set to "true" if updates should be disabled."

Ideally, ABP for IE would hum along quietly in the background, updating all of the necessary lists and whatnot without any intervention or notification (unless a user requests that). This is how things seem to work on the Chrome extension (and with Chrome itself). I get annoyed every time I see the ABP pop-up for IE. Just update yourself; don't bother me.

Does anyone know what reg key type for the disable_auto_updates value?
