Dear Lone Wolf,

I've tried to raise this issue before, and I believe the response was "we auto-activate stuff so people don't forget to do it."

This weekend I've been gaming with a Hero Portfolio that I haven't used for some time. I've had to spend time going through configure hero on every character in the portfolio turning off free packages that I don't want/use and resetting the default on each character.
On each hero I had to deactivate 7 packages that I haven't got outside HeroLab, and likely will never use - The Grande Temple of Jing, Kobold Quarterly, Midgard Players Guide, Ironfang Invasion, Return of the Runelords, Ruins of Azlant, War for the Crown.

I'm happy to see you advertise/publicize the fact that you do offer free content with updates (and it's great that you do), but can you please NOT auto-activate it on all our heroes. This seems to happen with nearly every pathfinder update. If I wanted any of these packages or options, I can activate them myself.

Current RPG's: Pathfinder (GM), Pathfinder (Player), Gamma World (GM, Pathfinder homebrew).
HeroLab: 3.5 & Pathfinder. HL User Files for PF: Greyhawk Setting, Gamma World (WIP).
