Tortoise SVN client keeps updating itself

[Martin Lukeš]

Hi, I use the Tortoise SVN client 1.6.12 in Win 11. I need to stay at that version because of the SVN version on our sever. I unchecked the automatic updating option in the client options.

Repeatedly after of a couple of hours of using the computer, the client updates itself to the latest version 1.14. 

I do not know, what causes that. 

Do you have any idea, how to avoid that?

Best regards,

Martin

TortoiseSVN shouldn't update itself.

I know of several antivirus/security/device management solutions that keep track of installed software and automatically update the clients to latest version. Maybe this is what is causing your installation?

Still, TSVN 1.14 should be backwards compatible with any Subversion 1.x server so why sticking to such an old client?

Kind regards,

Daniel
