I need someone to educate me.

Under updates we have a command to diactivate updates.

Under what circumstancess would anyone want to do that?

A whole bunch of us over the years have trained ourselves to update on a regular basis, There are some of us who are (possibly overly) cautious about being the first to install updates and prefer to wait a day or two and see what gets posted here about "The last update screwed up........(whatever) , which allows us to delay the update until another update fixes the first.

And some of us prefer to take the responsibility to make sure everything is up to date before filing a return rather than have a "babysittingsoftwaredevelopercontrolfreak" decide what we should do.

 

I turned it off on mine and will manually update a couple of times a week when I boot up in the morning.

Thank You

I was not aware of a problem with updates being wrong.

In fact  I have not had the problems that some of you have had .

The only problem I have had is this year with form 8915F
