How can disabled these Windows Preview Updates notifications?

I already tried the Group Policy setting (with GPUPDATE /FORCE) and then also restarted my machine and I can still see it.

And suggestions?

If not, then i can live with it - No big deal.

Thanks in Advance.

I just use WuMgr and hide them when I see any. What’s hidden never shows again.

1. You can toggle off get the latest updates as soon as they are available. Then restart your machine. This prevents non security preview patches from being downloaded automatically.

2. You can pause updates until after the next Microsoft update Tuesday. Install all the updates on the Wednesday and pause it again.

3. Use the Hide Windows Update tool, it's a stand alone that I downloaded years ago from Microsoft. It says it's no longer supported, but it works. I use it if I get an issue with an update not installing. I run it, it sees the update and you check a check box and save changes. Windows update no longer sees that update when you check again. You may have to pause updates and re enable them for windows update to flush any previously downloaded files.

Just do a Google search and download it from MajorGeeks.
