+    Enter “DisableManualUpdateInstall” for the Name
+    Enter 1 for the Data.

+If you use Group Policy in your company, you can distribute this key to multiple users via this process:
+
+    Open the Group Policy Management Console, gpmc.msc
+    Create a new (or edit an existing) Group Policy Object (GPO) in the Organizational Unit you prefer.
+    Expand the User Configuration section > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry
+    Right click on Registry, and select New > Registry Item
+    Use these settings:
+        Action: Update
+        Hive:  HKEY_CURRENT_USER
+        Key Path:  Software\Autodesk\ODIS
+        Value Name:  DisableManualUpdateInstall
+        Value Type:  REG_DWORD
+        Value Data:  1 or 2
+
+1 - Access will not start during device startup, and the system tray icon will not be shown. Users may still launch Access from the Start Menu, but when users close Access, it will quit the application and remove the system tray icon again
+
+2 - Access will show available updates, but will not display an Update button. Users will be able to see information about the updates, but cannot install them from Access.
