What happened to Skip this update?

Wasn't there always an option box on the pop up box for the new update to skip this update and stop seeing these reminders each day?

Hi Mike,

This isn't a direct answer to your question as I believe you are correct that the option to delay the update was removed from the Update reminder pop up.  What I have done is to change the Tools > Options > General > Automatically check for updates setting so that Evernote does not even show the pop up:

 

I have a date-based reminder which I use to remind myself every 2-3 weeks to check manually (Help > Check for Updates).  I've never cared much for pop-up reminders, nor for updates which run at inconvenient times.

Take care,

Brad

Well I hope they put it back. With the history of hiccups in their updates, the almost miniscule differences between updates and the effort to roll back I thought the ability to skip updates option until you were ready was a good option that they included, not sure why it would suddenly be removed.

Yes I would certainly agree.  It was easier to skip updates then.  Obviously you can accomplish the same thing with manual updating, but it's harder to know when a new update is out.

You can also select Remind me later.  A bit of a PITA, but you will at least know when new updates are available.  Then check to forum for feedback in the update thread.  FWIW.
