Copy code
rdctl start --application.updater.enabled=falsefast-garage-66093
02/03/2025, 5:30 PMIf that alone doesn't work, then maybe you need to delete the already downloaded update package, but I can't remember off the top of my head where that is located. Probably somewhere under
~/Library/Application Support/Rancher Desktop~/Library/Application Support/rancher-desktop/electron✅ 1

02/03/2025, 6:17 PMThanks for the workarounds! Should this be considered a bug though? It would be nice if there was a dialog like "do you want to cancel the upgrade?" (or "do you want to try the upgrade again?")

02/03/2025, 6:21 PMYes, there should be a way to abort it, so feel free to file a GitHub issue about it. Given that there is a workaround (I hope just running with

02/03/2025, 6:49 PMThank you. Unfortunately you created it in the Rancher (Manager) repo, and not in the Rancher Desktop one (https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop). I don't have admin access to the Rancher repo, so I can't move the issue; can you please close it and re-create it in the correct repo?
