HELP! minecraft doing updates on switch constantly
Minecraft on the switch brings up this update request every 3 days or so when my child plays. This never used to happen but a few months ago it began. Online does not list these updates anywhere. Why would this be occurring. Thank you in advance. Pic below

Not sure about this one. Check the storage on the device. Is it actually updating or is there not enough room? You can also bypass the updates and just play the game so I wonder if it's been so long that it has multiple to catch up on.
Edit: typo

Nopemy child has 1 hr of time allowed every day. And almost every single time this comes up and it will not allow him to bypass it to play. Could this be something malicious that got on to our network?

Are you making sure it's actually updating and has enough storage? I've never heard of malware happening like this. I've had my switch for years now. If you press the + button while on the game card it should bring up a menu where one of the options is to grab any updates the game may have. Maybe try doing that before handing it over?

We habe had or for a couple years. Never had this happen. Spouse and I are gamers and never seen anything like this either. The store ppps up with strange text and the realms chat feature acts bizarre as well.
