How can I disable or remove HP OMEN GAMING HUB?

[RTX]

I just bought a HP OMEN laptop – 24GB memory, Intel Ultra 7, 1TB SSD, 16” display, 2560 x 1600 res. Nvidia GeForce RTX graphics (240 Hz refresh rate).

Although I knew it was a “gaming laptop” , it was not my intention to use it for games at all.  I bought it on the recommendation of the HP Chat attendant who could not find any other non-gaming laptops with a higher display resolution.

With that said, I am experiencing frequent annoying notifications from HP OMEN in respect of the OMEN GAMING HUB.  I have opened this app once only, and have since never bothered to get near it.  But I am getting “in your face” notices just like un-wanted ads.

Question/Request for Help –

1) Is there a way to remove the “gaming aspects” of the software that was bundled with this HP OMEN? 

2) Will removing the OMEN GAMING HUB app have side effects to Windows 11 operational stability and integrity?

Would be highly grateful for any tips or guidance – I use this laptop for work, and the gaming aspects are interrupting my screens too much.

Thanking you in advance for your attention.
