Get rid of annoying pop ups

Okay I know this is a very silly question but how to get rid of this annoying security pop up's which keep popping every now and then.
I really get very frustrated with this and want to know how exactly to remove this from my system.
I know there must be some way to do that from registry or some thing.

Well I don't know any registry trick but there you can surely do it from the option given.
You have to right click on the Taskbar, then click on properties.
Click on customize, then you will see a list of programs.
On the right of that option you can select hide icon and notifications.
There is another way which is through Control Panel. I guess in the Action Center. Not sure though try it out from the first given method first.

Re: Get rid of annoying pop ups

Hey I know this method which is mentioned. It doesn't work.
Because when I try to disable that particular option, it gets disabled for that particular session only. Like if I restart my computer then it again comes over there and then I again I have to disable it. Which is really very annoying.
I have heard from my friends that you can change it from registry.
So does anyone know about it.?

Well so here it is of how to remove those pop up's by making some changes in registry. Just follow the bellow given steps :
First launch regedit. then Open HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced.
And then Create a REG_DWORD named EnableBalloonTips. And then Set the value data to 0.

And this should take care of your pop up's.

@ Jazmine
Well you can disable its notification but not delete it. And it sometimes happen that when you disable it then it again comes back once you restart the system.
So an solution will be by making changes in registry, I don't support it though.
But still if you want it then you can try on your own basis.
