Thunderbird on Mac: Turn off Update Notifications
I need to run an older version (71.*) of Thunderbird on Mac in order to use the Send Later add-on.
Thunderbird asks me once every day or two to upgrade to version 82, and I don't want to. Annoying because the dock icon bounces, it interrupts my use of the app, etc. I'm sure there is a setting to turn this off, but I can't find it, and didn't see a relevant post.
The closest setting I found was in Preferences, but it doesn't allow me to turn off update notifications altogether. Screenshot attached.
Any ideas

Hello there Jimmyfuoco+Firefox

I saw the picture from you guys. I have read a article where I regonised your problem.
It s about a Mac that article discribes the issue that you having at now.
Options = Preferences via Menu Bar: Thunderbird > Preferences > Advanced' > Update' tab Or via Mail Toolbar: 'Menu icon > Preferences > Preferences > Advanced' > Update' tab
Or
via Menu Bar: 'Tools' > 'Options' > Advanced' > Update' tab OR via Mail Toolbar: 'Menu icon' > 'Options' > 'Options' > Advanced' > Update' tab
For Windows I quess.

Unfortunately, on version 71.0b4 on Mac, there is no "Advanced" menu in Thunderbird > Preferences. Maybe a setting inside Config Editor would work.
I tried increasing app.update.promptWaitTime and app.update.interval to 86400000 (in seconds, which is equal to 1000 days). I quit and re-started. But, I still got prompted again today, after being prompted yesterday. Is there a different config setting to edit?

Options = Preferences via Menu Bar: Thunderbird> Preferences> Advanced '> Update' tab. what do you get to after doing this? When I go into thunderbird > preferences, there is no "advanced" option. "Updates" is a section in "General" as shown in the attached screengrab.
Is there a setting in Config Editor I can use to turn these update alerts off?
