How do I disable automatic updates of Google Chrome on Mac OS X?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I rebooted my machine (Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 15G31) and re-opened Google Chrome version 69.0.3497.92 (Official Build) (64-bit). It took me to the newly-updated version of the browser. When I went to Chrome -> Help -> About Google Chrome, I accidentally clicked on the "Automatically update for all users across all devices" line, and it changed to "Automatic updates are turned on". I don't want to automatically update Chrome across all of my devices. I can't see any place to turn this setting off. What do I do??

Depends how you setup auto update. If it's for you only:
, then just:
sudo chmod -R 000 ~/Library/Google
To revert it back:
sudo chmod -R 755 ~/Library/Google
If it's for all users:
Then you can change permission as above for /Library/Google/ or even remove it completely.
sudo rm -rf /Library/Google/
After you will see
or
depending on choosing method.
