Most of the people responding here have no clue what we're actually referring to. The update pop up will appear at any time, end users are immediately unable to access QB as they don't have permissions to run the update. There may be 5 or 10 people working in QB already we CANNOT run the update in the middle of a work day. One workaround is to disable the automatic update service, even go so far as to rename the exe itself so it cannot start since Intuit is obviously too stupid to fix this problem.
