[Solved] Want help for Online Update Option

Post by Xesnas »

i don't know where to post thing like this so i decide to post here .

I have domain server and it's client and i installed OpenOffice to each client (All client now use Windows).
assume that all client check this " Check for Update Automatically " box and i want to CLOSE IT ( ok i know this is weird )

My solution is use domain server deploy files or registry that make this function close .
Problem is i don't know what files or registry that contain code for open/close this function

Anyone know ? Please help >o<

It should be in some common.xcu file in the OOo user profile (\Documents and settings\<user>\Application data\OpenOffice.org2). You should open OOo, wait one or 2 minutes, change the setting in the Tools>Options>OOo>Online update dialog and search for files that have been modified in the last 2 minutes (I use PDExplorer and it allows searches on the time stamp).

Thanks to add '[Solved]' at beginning of your first post title (edit button) if your issue has been fixed.
