Disable Action Center notifications
I have disabled the Security Center, Windows Defender, and Windows Firewall. Each time I restart, the Action Center pops up and tells me I should correct this. How do I silence the Action Center.
Additionally, every time I start up, I get a message from Windows Defender telling me that it has been turned off. I want it off. How do I silence this message as well?
Thanks.

That's strange. Clicking on the link, for my example here, Backup, doesn't stop the Action Center notification for it?

Hmm, If I want to disable Win Defender, I don't change any of the settings for it's Service in Services. I just turn off Automatic scanning, and Real Time Protection from Win Defender options, and it turns it off. I don't get any notification to turn it back on. 
Of course, you could un check Spyware and Related Protection as well as the Virus Protection in the Action Center settings as well.
But I have Avast installed, which has a Spyware module built in, so I guess it replaces the missing Win Defender notifications when it's turned off.
Why do you want these turned off anyway? | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Airbot 2.0
