Hello,
I need my users to install updates manually, so I need to disable automatic package installation when their PCs shut down.
How can I properly disable this feature?
Thank you in advance.

Hello
https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-advance ... it-utility
You can use waptexit_disable_upgrade=0 in wapt-get.ini.
Waptexit will still start but will not launch any upgrades or installations.
However, during a shutdown, if an installation is already underway, it will restart to allow the installation time to finish what it started.
