I really care about updates for many of them and want to read the changelog before I update but for some, like Copilot, who get several updates a day, I really just want to always be on the latest. Copying section 7 from the above: Users could opt-out of Auto-Update for specific extensions, with toggle button next to Disable/Uninstall in Extensions Sidebar (under gear icon menu) and next to those buttons in Extensions Detail Page. This could allow users to stick with previous versions before new high-risk permissions became required This could allow avoiding updating to problematic versions of extensions until issues are resolved. This could allow users to manually review/approve updates based on reviews and changelog for higher (security or reliability) risk extensions This could be controlled per extension without disabling globally as may be desired by default for most extensions. Can be set per extension to "Default" vs Auto-Update vs. Disable Automates, like with Firefox, with Default behavior controlled through global setting. Could provide Undo Update button or choose from version history (like with Chrome/Firefox extension stores) on extension details page, to enable rollback to previous version after an update causes issues, instead of just disabling until if/when ever fixed.
Have you tried to select specific version for extension? This should effectively force version and prevent updates.
No, would that still show if there was an update available?
It should show. Also September 22 update had few updates to including . Check it out
