On the “B” side, if updates need to be manually approved, users should not get notified about it until after approval has been granted.
I work in corporate IT so I can entirely understand what’s happened to you.
The team that’s supposed to manage user communication doesn’t themselves actually know what’s going on so they just push out a notification whenever there’s an update and no one’s actually bothered to check whether or not that update is actually downloadable. Resolving this issue would require someone to actually care and no one really does so it’s never fixed.
