This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable "Don't show this message again" on the msconfig confirmation message dialog for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
System Configuration (msconfig) is a tool that can help find and identify issues that might prevent Windows from starting correctly.
When you make a settings change in msconfig and click on OK, you will be prompted by a restart confirmation message dialog with a Don't show this message again check box on it.
If you check the Don't show this message again box, you will no longer see the confirmation message dialog.
You can enable the msconfig confirmation message dialog again if wanted though.
