Everytime i open edge, it tells me to upgrade from windows 7. How do i disable this popup notification? I have already clicked ok. I do not want to upgrade from windows 7 yet.

Create file DisableChromeOSupgradeNotification.reg with content:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Chromium]
"SuppressUnsupportedOSWarning"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome]
"SuppressUnsupportedOSWarning"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\BraveSoftware\Brave]
"SuppressUnsupportedOSWarning"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge]
"SuppressUnsupportedOSWarning"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Vivaldi]
"SuppressUnsupportedOSWarning"=dword:00000001

and import it to the registry.

This should solve the problem for Chrome, Chromium, Brave, Edge and Vivaldi.
Here is description.

That seems to work, thanks. What i did is that i went into the regitry, exported one of the regdword files, then edited it by copy pasting the code into it, saven it and then double clicking to apply it, then restarted windows.
