Windows 2000 / Windows XP Pro
- Go to Start > Run
- Type gpedit.msc and click OK.
- Navigate through User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System.
- Double click "Don't run specified Windows applications".
- Enable it and click show.
- Add "avnotify.exe".
- Click OK on all open windows.
Alternate:
- Start > Run: secpol.msc (You can also access this program through 'Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy' this is useful if it is easier the location of this rather than the file name)
- Right click "Software Restriction Policies," Choose "New Software Restriction Policies." (Skip this step if there are subfolders in Software Restriction Policies already.)
- Right Click "Additional Rule" folder > New Path Rule.
- Where it says Path, Type the path of avnotify.exe on your computer, or use the Browse button to find it. (On XP64 using a default install of Avira, the path is: (C:\Program Files (x86)\Avira\AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic\avnotify.exe)
- Make sure the "Security Level" Dropdown menu is selected as "Disallowed"
- If you would like to make sure it went through correctly, open the Additional Rules folder, and verify the path and security level.
- Enjoy the absence of nag windows.
