    Yes please make an option so EOL only shows to Administrator. it is really a bad idea to disturb end users when they are managed.

    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.

    In a managed environment, like we're using with ESET Protect, we absolutely need the ability to suppress end of life warnings. It makes no sense to warn users that their fully functional client will have a problem 12 months from now.  They can't do anything about it other than worry and clog our helpdesk support.

    Give the IT administrators better insights into upcoming end-of-life dates right in the web console rather than making us proactively track down a website within your support pages.    I'm in the console on a daily basis and there'd be plenty of opportunity to warn me that 9.0.2046.0 needs to be updated before November 30, 2022.
