I don't want that! If anyone installs system changes or updates, it's me, no one else.
I want updates only to be displayed. Only I decide whether to install these updates, and when to install them! I expect that this automatic update feature can be disabled in the next version.

Whereas I had the issue of receiving notifications of the new versions being installed but they didn't so kept getting notified on every startup.

Agree partially with OP unless the update gives a detailed changelog telling us what is being changed/fixed.
