Turning off annoying windows messages

Nov 11, 2008 9 Replies

Anybody know how to disable windows warnings:



  1. Your computer may be at risk
  2. Wireless network not found.

Its getting annoying when they pop up when we're demoing a usb driven remote display for a flight simulator

I'm no windows pro but here's something to try..

For the security messages.. Control panel Security center Change the way Security Center alerts me Deselect stuff. I think that'll work.

I dunno about the wireless network not found.. It might be something like this.. Control panel Network Connections Right click on some icon Select disable. But I dunno for sure..

Linux?

Then you'll get annoying Linux messages :-).

Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software? "Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it says. See details at http://www.wescottdesign.com/actfes/actfes.html

Such as "You do not have permission to write ..."

Most useful link, thx...............

Just fix the system such that it works and warnings are unnecessary.

Good Luck! Rich

I'd do that but I'm not paying macafee another cent for nothing :-) ]]

An easier way is:

  1. Open Group Policy, then load the group policy you want to apply the change to.

Note: On a computer that is not a part of a domain you can set this feature locally by running GPEDIT.MSC from the Run command (only on XP Pro).

  1. Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates >

Start Menu & Taskbar 3.

Double-click Remove Balloon Tips on Start Menu Items and select Enabled.

  1. Ok all the way out. 5.

To revert to the original configuration status you'll need to Disable the same option, click Apply, and then set it to Not Configured.
