    Disable "Search for app in the store" popup


    Hi,
    We've recently installed some new computers with Windows 10 and when we open one of the programs on them this box pops up every time. When you click no the application will open. Is there any way to stop this box from coming up?

    Did you try the Reg file or the Group Policy?
