How to disable writing main.update-history information to ~/.wingpro10/preferences?
 

Currently, I have the following ~/.wingpro10/preferences file:

werner@x13dai-t:~$ cat ~/.wingpro10/preferences 
[user-preferences]
debug.resolve-properties = True
debug.show-private-variables = False
debug.show-protected-variables = False
debug.show-special-variables = False
edit.qt-display-font = 'display-font-size'
edit.show-line-numbers = True
gui.auto-save-before-action = True
gui.block-comment-style = 'block-indented-pep8'
gui.display-mode = 'light'
gui.qt-display-font = 'DejaVuSansMono Nerd Font Mono,12'
gui.startup-show-wingtips = 0
guimgr.last-wingtips-size = (500,
                             425)
main.last-prefs-page = (4,
                        5)
main.last-properties-pages = {'CProjectPropertiesDialog': 0,
                              'CStartDebugProperties': 0}
main.monitor-support-upgrades = False
main.update-history = [((10,
                         0,
                         4,
                         1),
                        'https://wingware.com/pub/updates/10.0.4.1/linux-x64/cc9fb3349ce9e34663d4bd613a3be8e75a27f6a2.tar.bz2',
                        '2024-05-10 11:27:33'),
                       ((10,
                         0,
                         4,
                         2),
                        'https://wingware.com/pub/updates/10.0.4.2/linux-x64/2f572c3e86aabf36b1b46e27f9eecdda36d62d07.tar.bz2',
                        '2024-05-24 20:26:26')]

But I don't want the main.update-history info appeared there. Is this possible?

Regards, Zhao

There's currently no way to prevent Wing from writing this to the preferences. It's used for diagnostic purposes only and could probably be removed at some point in the future.
