Description
Disable WordPress Updates
This plugin disables all WordPress updates and update checks. This includes WordPress core, WordPress plugin and WordPress theme update checks.
This plugin was created by Thomas Griffin. Check out some of my other products, including Soliloquy – the best responsive WordPress slider plugin, Envira Gallery – the best responsive WordPress gallery plugin and OptinMonster.
Installation
- Install Disable All WP Updates either via the WordPress.org plugin directory, or by uploading the files to your server.
- Activate Disable All WP Updates. No configuration necessary. Plugin may cause admin to be slow on activation as it cleans out any current update requests. Once this is complete, your admin area will run noticeably faster.

Works perfectly
There are already a few plugins in the wp rep which do similar things but it is the only one which tries to catch every possible update mechanism, and nothing else - and it does it very well.
Thomas is well known for excellent code quality so i rather use this one instead any other plugin
