This incessant whining about an update being available is about to make me replace Thunderbird. But I thought, before I do, I'd ask here: how do I

A) disable (turn off the constant popups) whining about the new update B) configure tbird to not check for updates in the first place (yes, I know some idiot removed that option) C) configure it to look, but shut up after notifying me one time

Any of these will work for me. As with Firefox, every time I update thunderbird, something stops working. That's not exactly a good thing. Edit: Thunderbird 68.8.0

Thanks

I found the ULTIMATE solution. I went into c:/programsandfiles/MozillaFirefox and deleted updater.exe. Same for Thunderbird. I be it's quiet now.  ;-} Nothing else posted here worked. This, I'm 99.99% sure, should work.
