Blocking ClickOnce applications from connecting to the internet

Hello all,

 

I am trying to figure out if it is possible to block a ClickOnce application (.appref-ms) from connecting to the internet. 

 

The clickonce application I am useing is trying to update it self when connected to the internet, however the new version is currently not compatible with other software I use. 

 

At the moment I disconnect from the internet when running the application but I'm looking for a better solution until the application update fixes its compatibility issues.

 

Regards,
