We recommend that you avoid modifying or deleting registry items Backup the Windows Registry and Create a System Restore Point Be sure to check this before you start. You can repair your computer easily from the System Restore or registry backup if things turn sour.
After closing Registry Editor, reboot the computer. The Windows update notification should be removed from your computer’s display after reboot. Delete the “SetUpdateNotifiationLevel” value to re-enable Windows update notifications on your computer.
Paste the contents of Registry Editor into your browser Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate You can find it in the navigation menu. Afterward, right-click SetUpdateNotificationLevel, Delete.
This does not stop Windows from updating notifications. However, it doesn’t block Windows from downloading and installing feature or quality updates automatically in the background.
