Windows 10 Startup Apps Notifications

I like Windows 10, but, this was driving me crazy. My computer was always giving me notifications about turning off apps at startup. I found this tip and thought I’d put it here to share and to be able to find later.

Once you get the Disable apps to help improve performance notification:

Go to Control Panel -> Security and Maintenance (right click on the Start Button and Left click on Control Panel to jump straight there).

Once opened under Maintenance (middle of the window) you will see the notification box with a Blue link at the bottom of the notification. Click that link Turn off messages about startup apps.
