Quit Slack and relaunched several time to see if I would be prompted again. Launched Slack and completed the notification screen with a local admin username and password. Launched Composer and selected new & modified snapshot. Installed package that Composer saved to the desktop. Packaged this with composer and deployed to the same test Mac. Signed in as a different user, still no alert. No notification for Slack to make changes. Simple drag and drop to Applications folder after mounting the dmg. I tried churcht's script and it didn't work so I tried this:ĭownloaded Slack from their website. To see if the environment variable is actually there Then try opening Slack and see if it gets rid of that annoying admin prompt. # Create PLIST file that sets an environment variableįile="/Library/LaunchDaemons/"Ĭom.COMPANYNAME.disable-slack-auto-updatesĪfter you create the plist file on a test machine, you should log out and back in. Here is a script I'm working on this morning for this in my environment. The best way to do this is to implement this environment variable SLACK_NO_AUTO_UPDATES No system.log output when i press cancel, neither when i enter the admin credentials.

I do get an output from terminal saying: May 10 11:58:30 Slack: DEPRECATED USE in libdispatch client: dispatch source activated with no event handler set set a breakpoint on _dispatch_bug_deprecated to debug But the pop-up on every start is still anoying. If you click on cancel, the app still starts.

When they update Slack (which is simply a new installation of the most recent client), it always shows the dialogue mentioned in the subject or attached screenshot on every app start, until someone types in admin creds.
