Deshabilitar 'Buscar actualizaciones al iniciar' en Drone2Map 2022.1

Question

Hola,

Estamos configurando el paquete Drone2Map 2022.1.2 para que esté disponible para los usuarios de la red a través de SCCM (Software Centre) en Windows.  Parte de la configuración habitual de seguridad es deshabilitar la opción "Check for updates on startup" ya que los usuarios no pueden ejecutar la actualización sin privilegios elevados.

Cuando empaquetamos ArcGIS Pro, usamos el indicador "CHECKFORUPDATESATSTARTUP=0" en el comando msiexec.  Este no es un indicador válido en Drone2Map 2022.1 y no tiene efecto.  Persistirá mostrando "A software update is available for Drone2Map" en la sección Acerca de.  Incluso al desmarcar la casilla "Check for updates on startup", verificará y ofrecerá la actualización la próxima vez que se ejecute la aplicación.

En ArcGIS Pro, la sección Acerca de muestra "Checking for updates is blocked".

Cualquier idea o solución alternativa es apreciada.  Gracias de antemano.

- Luis

Hello Mark,

I don't think it got fixed in Drone2Map 2023.1.

Installed by running MSIEXEC as follows:

msiexec.exe /i Drone2Map.msi CHECKFORUPDATESATSTARTUP=0 [...]

And checked the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Esri\Drone2Map\Settings\CheckForUpdatesAtStartup = 0.

But the 'About' screen still checks and says "Your Drone2Map version is current".

Maybe the next patch... or version...

Hi Luis,

Thank you for reaching out and bringing this to our attention. I was able to reproduce the issue on our end and we are looking into getting it fixed for our future release. The problem appears to be due to a specific regkey not being honored in Drone2Map. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/get-started/update-arcgis-pro.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_3F6E640257D340919333C98E6DBCCE94

The "Check for updates on startup" checkbox does work, but the blocking of updates currently does not. When you check or uncheck the box for "Check for updates on startup" it is controlling whether or not you see the pop-up in the top right corner of the program when it first starts up letting you know that there is an update available. It should not be blocking updates though, so you may have previously configured the BlockMajorUpdateNotifications registry key and that is what is being applied to Pro. Either way we are looking to get the blocking added in an upcoming release.

Regards,

Mark
