bhorv67 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Folks, in order to make the FSDT Live Updater stop removing modifications to their folder structure, put the attached file into the corresponding folder. This will cause the updater to ignore that folder. I would however recommend to remove this file every few weeks as unannounced updates are released.

Ols08 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 The file downloads as a blank white file with no instruction or way to unzip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhorv67 Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 There's nothing in the file. The point is the filename. You can make this yourself. Open Wordpad and save a blank file, as long as the title says 'DONTUPDATE' and remove the file extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptKornDog Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 One follow up question: do you need to put this in every sub-folder too, or just the top level of what you don't want altered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put it in the particular folder you don't want updated. I'd caution you that the dev is known for posting constant updates, and you may want to remove that and run the liveupdater from time to time to make sure you're not missing important updates.
