Bug ID: 166307
Summary: Unable to Permanently Disable Auto-Updates in
LibreOffice 24.8.3.2 (and later) and 25.2.1 on Windows
11
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.3.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
In LibreOffice version 24.8.3.2 (x86_64) (also 25.2.1) on Windows 11, it is
currently not possible to fully disable automatic updates. I have attempted the
following steps without success:
Registry Modifications: I was unable to identify a reliable registry key that
disables auto-updates. Any changes made had no effect.
Disabling the LibreOfficeMaintenance Service: Although I can stop and disable
this Windows service, LibreOffice prompts the user to reactivate it on every
launch, making this workaround ineffective.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install 24.8.3.2 with disabled Auto-Update
2.Restart LibreOffice (sometimes it takes several tries)
Actual Results:
LibreOffice continuously enforces or reinstates auto-update functionality, with
no effective way to opt out permanently.
Expected Results:
There should be a persistent method to disable automatic updates, either via
GUI, registry, or configuration file.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
