For those of you affected by this problem I have found that you need to programmatically disable the "Get notifications from these senders" by editing the wpndatabase.db on everyone's computer. Here is a basic PowerShell snippet of how I accomplished this:
$connString = ("Data Source='" + "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Microsoft\Windows\Notifications\wpndatabase.db'")
$con = New-Object -TypeName System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteConnection
$con.ConnectionString = $connString
$con.Open()
$cmd = $con.CreateCommand()
$cmd.CommandTimeout = 10
$cmd.CommandText = "UPDATE [HandlerSettings]
SET [Value] = 0
WHERE [HandlerSettings].[SettingKey] LIKE 's:toast'
AND [HandlerSettings].[HandlerId] IN (
SELECT HS.[HandlerId]
FROM [HandlerSettings] AS HS
INNER JOIN [NotificationHandler] AS NH ON NH.[RecordId] = HS.[HandlerId]
WHERE HS.[SettingKey] LIKE 's:toast' AND NH.[PrimaryId] LIKE 'Microsoft.Explorer.Notification%'
)"
[void]$cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
$con.Close()
This is probably bad code but I am a systems administrator not a programmer. Systems administrators are responsible for their infrastructure and we do not need to be dictated by people complaining about a yellow popup describing something that will happen over a year from now. Every environment is different and it's a shame ESET doesn't realize this.
