Windows 7 support has just ended and an update is coming to Windows 7 that prompts you to upgrade to Windows 10, but you can turn that off notification in Windows 7 to prevent it from bothering you.
Notices have been a topic that has generated controversy in Windows for some time, with screens that even made it impossible to close However, On this occasion and despite being such an extremely important issue, update notifications can be removed.
And we are talking about an informative notice that notifies the user that his computer with Windows 7 is no longer supported, inviting him to upgrade to Windows 10in order to ensure protection against threats, regular updates, etc.
This is a message important enough to let it pass, as it also warns you that if you continue with Windows 7 you are more exposed to vulnerabilities, programs not updating, and many other things, but it's a notification that can be easily turned off.
The notification in question informing you to upgrade to Windows 10 may appear if you are still using Windows 7. It is not appearing at all users, so it will probably start to appear soon, especially after installing a certain update.
The warning appears after the installation of a program called “EOSNotifiy” which is included in the update KB4350734 released in December, so that the chances that the notification will appear sooner or later are very high if you have installed that update.
At any time you can jump to a blue screen informing you of everything we have told you so far, appearing several options that allow you to ignore the notification to see it later or permanently remove it so it doesn't bother you anymore.
Two options to remove the notification
