chrome automatic update blocker

only works on chrome 85 or higher


this method (originally found by Catakang#0987) will help you keep your chromebook downgraded (or on the current version) without automatic updates screwing you over using onc files, you can convince your chromebook that the wifi that you're connected to is pay-to-use (like a hotspot using data), and thus it will not check for updates i cannot guarantee that this will work on every wifi
to start: - go to chrome://network#state (on your school chromebook of course; if this is blocked then ur kinda screwed lol) - scroll to the bottom of the page; you should see a list of "favorite" wifis that you've connected to in the past - click the + sign next to the wifi name of each network that you commonly connect your chromebook to the more wifis you expand, the better, but note that they have to come from the "favorites" section - use ctrl+a and ctrl+c to copy all the text on the entire network#state page - go back to this page (caub.glitch.me) - paste the copied text into the textbox below - press the "generate onc" button below the textbox
the input stuff here is new and a little hacky, if it doesn't seem to work, try the old version
- once you have downloaded the file, go to chrome://network#general - click on the "import onc" button - import the newly downloaded file your chromebook will no longer automatically update (as long as you are on a wifi that you used caub on) be careful not to stay on a wifi for too long without using caub on it
