Support Request: Disable update check/can't be blocked with firewall

[HaveDex]

What do you need help with?

I don't want the program to check if there's an update available when I launch it. Blocking it (any of the executables) via the firewall does nothing, it still tells me there's an update. Unplugging my ethernet prior will have it check for a bit before giving up, so it's not like it has a cache file that says "there's a new version". It somehow access the internet despite being blocked. I don't want that.

What have you tried?

Tried blocking via Windows Firewall, which did nothing.

Daemon.exe is the one which accessing the internet, 140.82.121.6 and 140.82.121.5 and so on, Github's IPs. I don't want it to access the internet at all.

Set up the firewall correctly. Here is a guide https://www.wikihow.com/Block-a-Program-with-Windows-Firewall

Method 1 listed here will work. I have tested it.

If you would like to bring OTD entirely offline instead of just the updater you should also repeat these steps for OpenTabletDriver.UX.Wpf.exe

Being able to ignore updates is currently not planned as there is a workaround (using the firewall). Please open a new feature request (instead of a support request) for disabling updates.
