    For non-Enterprise versions of Windows, the notification icon can be suppressed through the Windows registry. To do this, set the following registry value:

    Subkey: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Gwx
    DWORD value: DisableGwx = 1

    Windows registry

    Important Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it, back up the registry for restoration in case problems occur.

    To block the upgrade to Windows 10 through Windows Update, specify the following registry value:

    Subkey: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUp date
    DWORD value: DisableOSUpgrade = 1
