Remove Alienware Mobile connect update notifications
I updated to the new alienware mobile connect and found it to be inferior to version 3.3 .
I deleted it and reinstalled 3.3, but now I am getting notifications to update to the new version everytime I use it.
Is there a way I can remove these notifications?

Is there a settings to configure stuff? I think you can just press x.

there is no way to disable it. pressing the x 600 million times is not helpful.
I was hoping someone would know a or registry mod or another way to block the app from checking for an update online.
The app itself is in a folder on the C drive that is secured by system, even as an admin I cannot access it.

do you have any other drives in the system that you could install it on?

I have the same issue. I keep getting the annoying upgrade notices. I tried Alienware Mobile Connect 4 and it is simply awful. I do not wish to be harassed to use an app that is terrible. Is there a way to stop the app from harassing me?

I did not think about that.
I will try it and report back.

intalling the new one also does not work - the update notices are still there.

did you guys try to install the one that you liked better instead of the new one? And maybe @Dell-BradL can help out.

Yes - when the new one became available a banner appeared in the old software that covers you messages. The new one is no good.

What kind of notifications are you getting? If they’re in the taskbar just set it to priority only. If it’s the actual app I think you can configure if it says it needs an update.
