Can I Turn Off the "New Programs Installed" Message?
Question: Is there a way to turn off the thing that tells you new programs have been installed on the Start menu? I already know I installed new programs - I don't need to be told. I know it's a little thing but it's annoying. Thanks. - Rhonda
Answer: Yes, it's easy to disable the "New Programs Installed" notification. Right click the Start menu and select Properties. Click the Start Menu tab. Click the Customize button, then click the Advanced tab. Now just uncheck the box that says Highlight newly installed programs. That'll do it.
