"Product Update is available" Popup

If you just click "Don't update", the reminder will appear again the next time you run the software.  But you can "snooze" it for about a month by clicking "Remind me in 30 days".

To disable the reminder for yourself alone, download the attached DisablePalisadeUpdateAutoCheck(user).reg and double-click it. To check for updates once, click Help » Check for Software Updates. To re-enable the automatic check, download EnablePalisadeUpdateAutoCheck(user).reg and double-click it.

To disable the reminder for all users on a given computer, follow this procedure:

1. Close Excel and Project.
2. Click Start » Run, type regedit and press the Enter key.
3. To suppress updates for all users on this machine, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432Node (if it exists) or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software.
4. Expand that key, and under it click Palisade.
5. In the right-hand panel, you should see a value called CheckForUpdatesDisabled — if it's not there, right-click an empty area and select New » String Value to create it.
6. Double-click CheckForUpdatesDisabled and enter the value True to disable update notices.

Users can still check for updates when they wish, by running the software and clicking Help » Check for Software Updates.

To re-enable the automatic check for updates, change the value to False or simply delete CheckForUpdatesDisabled.
