Hellos. First I just want to say, I don't have much experience with linux systems, but I really like deepin so far. I'm just having one issue. I don't have the greatest internet connection. We don't get a lot of bandwidth out here, and something keeps using up what I do have, which is effectively dos-ing me. I think it is being caused by automatic downloads and/or deepin checking for new updates. I found the automatic updates option in the deepin store and unchecked it, but tbh I'm not sure if it's really not trying to download anything anymore without permission. I'm still busy opening the terminal and killing download/update processes pretty often just so I can access the internet when I need to.

Is there a way to disable automatic checks for updates and automatic downloads, so that I can access the internet without having to open up the terminal all the time, or download apps/programs off the deepin store without it failing because the update stuff starts using up all the bandwidth?

Deepin store won't download if you uncheck the option of automatic updates.
