CCS: Disable Automatic Update Checks in Code Composer Studio

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi

I need to deploy Code Composer Studio in a teaching environment where students don't have admin. I would like to be able to switch off the automatic updates via script so either modifying the registry or the content of a configuration file. Does anyone have any pointers as to how to automate this?

All the best

    Hello Andy,

    The file you want to modify is:

    <CCS8 INSTALL DIR>\ccsv8\eclipse\p2\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine\profileRegistry\epp.package.cpp.profile\.data\.settings\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk.scheduler.prefs

    add the following line to the file:
    enabled=false
    Thanks

    Hi Ki-Soo
    Your response has been useful. Editing the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.ui.sdk.scheduler.prefs under the install folder does not seem to work as a copy gets created under the user’s profile. Editing this file works and if I pre-create the file with the correct content it is not overwritten by the creation of the other user profile settings. I think I will need a group policy preference to pre-create the file each time a user logs in.
    All the best

    Looks like the GPP approach has worked.

    Thanks for the assist.
