Every day my computer says it has updates that i have to click and install. Now, the updates have settings in which i can supposedly control what is being checked and how often, and what to do when updates are being found.



What i did yesterday was, i only left the Important security updates checked (and i unchecked recommended and all that other stuff), and under Automatic updates section i set to check Every fortnight (which is the rarest possible option), and then i selected the option to Install security updates without confirmation. It asked me for password to make the changes, and then saved. Today i got on my PC, and again, i get the notification that updates are available, and it's waiting for me to click to install them.



For what difference it might make, i have the "regular" Ubuntu 18.04. installed, and then i installed the KDE desktop manually afterwards.



Can i get it to not ask me about updates, ideally ever; but if not that, at least respect the every fortnight option so i don't have to click it every day?
