For the past week or so, whenever I turn on my computer, I get a pop-up from HP informing me that there are newer and faster adaptors for me. How do I get rid of this bit of annoyance? All the solutions I found online don't seem to apply, as they might have been intended for previous versions of Windows.
Solved! Go to Solution.
