Turn off Annoying Windows Update Notification
First off, I am not trying to find how to turn off automatic updates,
I know how to do that. I currently have it turned off, and I want it off for a reason but Windows always bugs me with a security center popup saying "WINDOWS AUTOMATIC UPDATES ARE TURNED OFF, CLICK HERE TO TURN THEM ON!". Not only does it say that all the time, but it leaves an icon in my taskbar which is really annoying. Is there a way to turn off this annoying XP popup? I already checked in gpedit.msc and sysdm.cpl and there was nothing I found. (Maybe I overlooked something?) But anyways, maybe a registry edit or something to keep this icon and message from popping up. |

There is a list on the left under the title "Resources", Click on the bottom one "Change the way Security Center alerts me" 4. Uncheck "Automatic Updates" That should do it. - William |
