Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/11804

Originally assigned to: @jmorganca on GitHub.

It is very frustrating and annoying that Ollama frequently auto-updates, causing repeated issues in our products.

We have to spend significant time debugging and resolving problems several times a week.

Currently, the only way to block updates seems to be by going completely offline or blocking ollama.com, which also prevents model installation. This is highly disruptive.

Please provide users with an option to permanently disable auto-updates, giving more control to the user.

@erbanku so sorry about this. Will make sure this can be better controlled in the app. May I ask what the source of the breakages was? Will make sure to address this as well.

Our product needs to interact with ollma via our plugin, and we have 30+ models for testing and different use cases, which is compatible with specific ollama versions. As such needs long-term compatibility, other than some features and improvements which we have never used, even in the future 10 years or so.

So just give users control, or a non-disruptive way to disable updates, if the new version of ollama has the features or improvements we need in the future, we naturally update it.

definitely this, the latest update on windows 28/08/25 v0.11.5 seems to cause error with "Error model runner has unexpectedly stopped, this may be due to resource limitations or an internal error, check ollama server logs for details.", and doesn't even appear in the log files.

Users who have re-installed 11.4 have then had it auto update to the new version and had the same error.
