How do I turn off or keep from loading the AutoUpdate.exe. 

I don't have a problem with the LE Pro checking for updates when I start the program. 

I do have a problem with having a back ground program that starts every time I turn on my computer. 

I understand that some people like the the idea. 

I would like option to turn it off.

Thanks

Update to V2016.09. There is a new "Check for Update" in Help.

I was not clear in what I was asking. 

How do I stop the program/process X_FPX2016PRO_AutoUpdate.exe from loading at start up. 

I have gone into the Check for Update and set it to Never. 

I then rebooted my computer. 

The executable still loads on start up.

Simply delete the EXE file. The Library Expert will work fine without it there. We're testing a much simpler "Check for Updates" function, and will soon discontinue using the Autoupdate EXE file.
