    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    You can use the Group Policy Editor to disable update notifications. Please refer to the following steps:

    1. Press the Win key + R key combination shortcut to open the Run window, enter "gpedit.msc" in the dialog box, and then press Enter.
    2. Navigate to "Computer Configuration" -> "Administrative Templates" -> "Windows Components" -> "Windows Update" -> "Manage End User Experience", and find "Display Options for Update notifications".

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best regards

    Thank you for replying, I will try this solution and will let you know if it works for me. I have another question. Can i somehow test it please? Is there a way to simulate this pop up? Or should I just wait for the notification to come up, or in a better case, it will never pop up again and the problem will be resolved.
