Excellent Question, I hope someone can please please please answer this.

I do word programming for clients so I must maintain the same version of Word as they have. I have Office 365 2013 on one machine, and will eventually put 2016 on a separate machine. Every single time I open any office program and every single Word document, I get a yellow bar that says "GET THE NEW OFFICE It's one of the perks of having Office 365." - My only options are to close just that one instance of the bar, update, or "see what's new."

I cannot find a "I get it already, please stop harassing me, at least for now!" button. I went into my account and turned off office updates, but the message persists. Persistently.

I've searched the internet and found no mention. I only stumbled upon this message as I was about to post my own thread on the topic. Surely RodG and I can't be the only two people in the world who don't want to update right this minute...
