This option is still present in the sp_configure stored procedure, although its functionality is unavailable in [!INCLUDEssNoVersion]. The setting has no effect. Direct updates to the system tables are not supported.
Important
[!INCLUDEssNoteDepFutureDontUse]
Changing the allow updates option will cause the RECONFIGURE statement to fail. Changes to the allow updates option should be removed from all scripts.
