How to disable automatic updates in opencart?

Question

opencart

Good day. Can you please tell me how to disable automatic updates in OpenCart? The problem is the following, there is an online store based on the fractal template (purchased officially). We are making some changes to the site code. Some time passes. Apparently, the open cart is being updated and all our edits are being lost. We put it again. Again the same picture. The developer gave me his email. I tried to write, Yandex answers that such a box does not exist.

Answer 1

I can assume that you write your code in modifier files.
When it is updated, all code (modified files) is automatically overwritten.
There is no automatic update in OpenCart.
