`--disableupdate` does not prevent an update from running on startup

  2. Update runs (assuming one is available)

Expected behavior Startup runner without updating.

Runner Version and Platform

Version of your runner? 3.287.1

OS of the machine running the runner? OSX/Windows/Linux/… Windows

What’s not working?

Cannot workaround #1728 using --disableupdate (or similar)

Hey @JakeThurman,

IDGI, how is the config.sh workaround a “fix”? I can’t run that on existing runners, how do I disable updates for them? 😃

EDIT: For context, getting “Cannot configure the runner because it is already configured. To reconfigure the runner, run ‘config.cmd remove’ or ‘./config.sh remove’ first.”, and I’m in a situation where it’s highly inconvenient to 1°) get a remove token and 2°) get another registration token
