How do I prevent my system from updating automatically?

Please be sure to check that your operating system is not enabled to update itself automatically. While this can be a useful feature for some, anyone who relies on the stability of their software tools should prefer control over which base operating system is installed on their system. 

Automatic updates will not account for software compatibility before updating, which could lead to problems with stability and other functionality if your gear is not ready for the changes in the operating system.

To avoid any delays or downtime, it's best to deliberate when making the decision to update and use the opportunity to check that all your software tools will be compatible before making the jump. To turn off automatic updates for macOS, please do the following:

1. Navigate to System Settings  > General > Software Update
2. Click the Information (i) icon beside Automatic Updates 
3. Uncheck all boxes below:
4. Click Done to apply the changes
