The “update orchestrator service” cannot be disabled permanently but it can be stopped temporarily.
|
What if you use the host file and block it there,wont that totally stop it??
Or adding a block in your router to that IP??

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
Maybe it's just me but . . . a text today from the doctors surgery.
Was it asking me to submit some (home done) results for my blood pressure? NO
Was it asking me to come in for a yearly health check? NO
Was it anything at all to do with present or future health issues I may have? NO
It was a text stating their 2026 Spring News Letter is now available online at www.blah.blah.blah
I have no interest in who has joined or who has left the practice, which of the receptionists (we can squeeze you in next week) can now answer the phone in 7 different languages, or that Janet the cleaner is having another baby.
Just shove that crap on Facebook where it belongs

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
I use Microsoft Authenticator app across 3 devices to protect myself if a device dies.
The only way to sync across a device is to turn on cloud backup on the main device uninstall the app on the other device and then do a recovery when reinstalling.
This worked in the past but Ive spent an hour faffing around because it kept failing on the recover, I was starting to consider switching apps.
My fix was to turn the backup off on the main account and on again and very quickly do a recovery on the other devices, if I wait too long it will cause a recovery fail again.

I don't like Googles because there is no password or fingerprint option for unlocking the app other than a phone password.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
I'm talking about the Google Authenticator app not having a fingerprint option or password when you open it, has that changed?

Thank you that's new to me, I wonder how long they have had that option.
Edit - August 2024.
Edit - I have Privacy screen on my Pixel phone but not on my Samsung tablet, I wonder if it's another setting somewhere.
---------- Post added at 20:48 ---------- Previous post was at 20:37 ----------
The app was likely in deep sleep so after updating it I now have that option.
