Upgrade to Premium Edition of Dell Backup and Recovery Message

Laptop continually receives the message below after upgrading to Windows 10. User chooses "Do not remind me" at every log in, however the message always reappears. Other problems like altered start up and system responsiveness are effected.

Is it possible to stop the notification?

Agreed - message has stopped appearing.

Prior to this, I had set the Service "SoftThinks Agent Service" to Manual, but was worried I might lose out on something. Yesterday I set it back to Automatc (Delayed), and today I started up my PC and no more annoying message.

I have exactly the same problem.

I would have thought that a month after upgrading my Dell laptop from stock 8.1 to Windows free 10 that this message would disappear. How many ways are there of interpreting "Do not remind me" are there, and how many times do you have to answer the same question the same way?

Dell please let us know how to get rid of this message - it annoys me every day...

How long do we have to wait for Dell to answer this problem?

Clean boot was also performed possibly clearing old data.

Well that popup reappeared again on Sunday! (I shutdown and start my laptop every day).

Dell have you actually fixed the issue, or has the message expired and reappeared after a Dell update?

Either way - PLEASE SORT IT OUT!!!

Computer updated by the Dell Update application. A new blue and white folder icon installed as a DFS process. Try to update or call tech support.

Hello Todd,

Were you or anyone able to 100% solve this issue? This is so annoying. I keep clicking on the Do not remind me message and of course it reappears after I reboot my laptop.

Thanks!

The message stopped after performing the clean boot. Microsoft's website lists the instructions for the clean boot. The Dell Update utility also upgraded after. You can search Dell's website to determine whether the utility updated.
