I have Chrome configured to not continually auto-update, but I'm still getting the following pop-up at load (which is supremely annoying). And I'd prefer not to see this every month or so (as I manually update the browser as needed):
Here is everything I've tried, but still can't get this one notice to stop (I was able to remove it from my other browsers, like Edge and Firefox):
1) Disabled the start-up entries in msconfig
2) Disabled all the Chrome update entries in services
3) No Chrome update entries in Task Scheduler
4) Renamed the Google Update folders in Program Files (86) by adding ".old" to the folder names (didn't find any such folder in the Users folder)
5) Block all the update.exe files I found in my BitDefender firewall.
But this annoying little friend still pops up each time. Anything else I can try?
