### UniGetUI Version
3.2.0
### Windows version, edition, and architecture
Windows 10 Pro x64
### Describe your issue
UnigetUI checks for package updates on start-up, in my case presenting the user with installable updates generally at least once a day, often several times per day, which is what I was trying to avoid by setting the 'Check for Updates Every' setting to one week.
It looks like this setting assumes the computer runs permanently, however I would argue that most users shut their computers down between uses.
UnigetUI should have an option to not check for package updates on startup, or at the very least nerf the notification generated when it does.
The behaviour I expect is that once per week (e.g. the first start-up after 06:00am on Fridays), UnigetUI will notify me if there are updates to install.
