Hi Frederik,

just a suggestion: Could it be that a WinGet process is running in the 
background via Intune and updating applications without asking?

Hi all,
another user recently reported to this mailing list that their QGIS 
installation on a Windows system kept updating itself from 3.44 to 4.0 against 
their will [1].

After various messages, it turned out that the issue was due to the fact that 
their "outsourced IT provider was updating it due to their cyber security 
protocol" [2].

Also recently, another user reported on gis.stackexchange the same issue [3] 
without giving further explanations.

Regards.

Andrea Giudiceandrea
