Directory News and Updates Window

I do not want this window to prompt users. How do I remove permanently? You can check the box to not remind user, but we are on a VDI desktop and each time a user restarts their Citrix session, the checkmark is removed. I would like to create a group policy to not prompt users.

Thank you for your assistance.

Regards,
Cynthia

The setting is stored within %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\GPSoftware\Directory Opus\ConfigFiles\prefs.oxc, which is presumably being reverted to a fixed state at each login.

If you turn off the update checker via Preferences, then either wait ~10 seconds or use File > Exit Directory Opus to force the config file to be flushed to disk, you should then be able to copy that over the file that's being created at login, and the update checker should no longer appear on new logins.

Thank you Leo. I appreciate it.
