auto update how to disable?

[stephendine]

Ok I know this has probably been asked a million times before but how do you disable automatic updates as I just rolled back to a previous version and don't want steam to update to the newest version as it breaks stuff I want to keep using until they are made compatible with the new version thanks in advance

So what prevented you from using the search function? :)
- Or you maybe have used it and still for some reason not found the answer :)

Ok, I also can not just remember how to prevent auto updating, so let's look at it:

Right-click on ETS2 in your Steam library and go to "Properties" -> "Betas".
Choose the game version you want to stay on.

There is a walk around. But it will stop updates for all Steam games.

In the Steam main page, top left, go to Steam / Settings / Downloads

Check the box "Only auto update games between:"

Set en initial and final hour to some you are definitely off line, ie i set mine 3:00am to 4:00am

So the next day the updates will be in queue but will not initiate. I you want to be extra safe, the en the Download queue, click on the blue X, so it will be removed from the queue.

Off course you will be not be able to play a game not updated. But you can decide if and when it gets updated.
