    I would like to disable the auto-updater, please add this ability. I have customized the installation and don't appreciate my changes automatically being wiped out periodically.

    but you can edit UnityHub/hubConfig.json (in system user dir) and set "hubDisableAutoUpdate":true

    Oh, where is that file located? I don't quite get what you mean by "system user dir".

    Disabling auto-update means that you will not receive bug fixes.
    If you choose a folder other than the hub itself for your installation, the issue should be resolved. (Actually in hub v2.0 when you are choosing the install location, it checks that)

    I don't get what you mean by "the hub itself". I'm on a Mac. Can you clarify? How do I disable auto-update?
