Go to the list of your Devices & Printers, then for doPDF 8 right click and select Printing Preferences. After that click on the About tab and then on Check for Updates. You'll see there an option to enable/disable it and also how often to do it.

Is it possible to set it to not update during the install? Or a registry setting? We are deploying this to some users and would like it to not ask them for updates.

Self bump to see if Softland will reply.

No, you cannot set during installation a parameter to disable updates.
However, this is the registry key that has to be set to 0 if you want to disable updates:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Softland\novaPDF 8\doPdf8_Softland\AutomaticUpdate

I assume you could create a registry file and install it on their computers after dopdf is installed.

Thank you for the reply. So yes, I could make that key, however it is under the current user hive and we have systems that multiple people would use. Do you know if there is anything under LOCAL_MACHINE we could use? I did not see any keys there and copying the one from HKCU did not work.

Sorry, this is possible only in current_user
