Screenshots

To Reproduce

1. Configure Update manager Auto-Refresh options as desired, even disabled.
2. Wait
3. Observe update notifications that do not align to configured settings

Expected behavior
Update notifications in alignment with Auto-Refresh configuration

Distribution:

• [x ] Linux Mint

Software version:
7.1.4

Logs:

2026.07.18@08:01 ++ Launching Update Manager

Additional context
It can take several days to confirm the bug as observation requires updates to be available (i.e., if it is checking more frequently than configured, but no updates are available, then new updates available notification cannot appear).
