By default, you will be prompted to check for updates every 2 weeks. You can choose other update modes by adding a line to your `~/.zshrc` file, **before Oh My Zsh is loaded**:
```shell

1. Automatic update without confirmation prompt:
To disable automatic upgrades, set the following in your `~/.zshrc`:
```sh
zstyle ':omz:update' mode auto
```
```shell
DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE=true
2. Just offer a reminder every few days, if there are updates available:
```sh
zstyle ':omz:update' mode reminder
```
3. To disable automatic updates entirely:
```sh
zstyle ':omz:update' mode disabled
```
NOTE: you can control how often Oh My Zsh checks for updates with the following setting:
```sh
# This will check for updates every 7 days
zstyle ':omz:update' frequency 7
# This will check for updates every time you open the terminal (not recommended)
zstyle ':omz:update' frequency 0
```
