How to not see 'Do you want to manually locate the broken reference?' at startup

How do I not see 'Do you want to manually locate the broken reference?' when I open a file? 

 

If I want to search for It I will, but 99% of time not relevant to the task at hand.

You disable the option to auto update references at file open.

• Thanks, all I could find to do that was this, and it lacks an absolute OFF - very hard to find this sort of thing in VW - could find nothing in HELP for location of this setting.

Edit the reference and you should see the option to auto update the reference at file open.
This an option that can be controlled for each reference individually.
Note that if you are referencing an image file and the option to save the referenced cache is unchecked, the reference image will always auto update at file open. 
You must enable "save referenced cache" to control the auto updating at file open.

 

Hope it helps.

edit the file you have referenced and untick 'automatically update references' when the file opens.
