You can use ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) to suppress these notifications on client computers that report to the ERA server. To create a configuration that suppresses these notifications and push that configuration out to client computers, follow the steps below:

Open the ESET Remote Administrator Console (ERAC) by clicking Start → All Programs → ESET → ESET Remote Administrator Console.

Click Tools → ESET Configuration Editor.

In the ESET Configuration Editor menu on the left, click ESET Smart Security, ESET NOD32 Antivirus → ESET Kernel → Setup → Advanced → Notify about missing OS updates from level: Critical updates.

Although ESET does not recommend doing so, it is possible to disable the graphical user interface of your ESET security product. In certain cases, such as terminal server networks with extreme memory limitations, you may wish to disable each instance of the egui.exe. It is essential that you first configure ESET Remote Administrator to control terminal computers running instances of ekrn.exe because after disabling, there will be no graphical interface on the terminal computer.
