I would vote against such a change as wasted development effortįor example - my workflow is such that I start using OBS Studio long before I'm going to start Streaming/Recording. And while you're updating the OS manually, you can also update all the apps manually, because they're all independent on Windows.

Then update manually, AND ACTUALLY DO IT!!! Not-updating is an open invitation to get hacked. Set EVERY connection to metered! Even if it's not, set it that way anyway, so that #1 prevents an automatic download.(the purpose of that setting is to not surprise you by downloading a GiB worth of updates in the background on a 1 GiB phone plan) Set it to not update on metered connections.

On Windows, it's a bit harder, but it can be approximated: And of course, the formal automatic-update is disabled. And because Linux also updates all of the apps at the same time (the apps themselves don't, at all), that's covered too. On Linux, I can add a shutdown script that updates everything automatically, so I just shut down normally and it 'just happens' then. (OBS v27 to v28, for example, breaks a lot of plugins without warning, and if you don't already know, it'll also wipe out all of their settings even if you do get them working again)

And it gives me the most possible time to troubleshoot if something were to break. I second this! I do the same thing with OS updates.manually because the automatic logic doesn't.
