Why can't turn off the Sublime 3 updates notif

问题:

I want to turn off the Sublime 3 updates notification, so I go to Preferences -> Settings-User and edited it like this:

{
    "auto_close_tags": true,
    "font_size": 18,
    "hot_exit": false,
    "remember_open_files": false,
    "show_encoding": true,
    "update_check": false
}

but it doesn't work.

回答1:

There is no way to turn this off, unless you have registered your version of Sublime. Sublime Text 3 is still in "beta" status, so it is strongly advised that you upgrade when a new version is available to get the latest features and bug fixes. If you don't want to upgrade quite so often, make sure you are using the public beta instead of the dev releases, which are updated much more frequently. However, you can't use the dev releases unless you have a license, in which case "update_check": false will work as expected.

Add this line in your host file.

127.0.0.1       www.sublimetext.com

for linux, host file is /etc/hosts and for windows it is C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts

Update : If you want to open sublime website on your browser then make sure to undo these changes.

You need to register the software for "update_check": false to work.

The deal is that if you're not paying, then your contribution is to help with testing the software, and for that you need to be using the latest version.

Go to preferences then settings-user then within the {} parentheses type:

"update_check": false

This only works if you are registered

I did the following after installing sublime text 3:

Modify /etc/hosts to include entries:

127.0.0.1 www.sublimetext.com
127.0.0.1 sublimetext.com
127.0.0.1 sublimehq.com
127.0.0.1 license.sublimehq.com
127.0.0.1 45.55.255.55
127.0.0.1 45.55.41.223
0.0.0.0 license.sublimehq.com
0.0.0.0 45.55.255.55
0.0.0.0 45.55.41.223

And then set "update_check": false

open sublime_text binary with hex editor eg, okteta and search for 'characters' [your current version number eg 3126] and replace with the current download version eg 3143 > save > done. (i got the changelog on first run).

note: i found the version no in 2 places. replaced both.
