Anoying New Badges On The Taskbar Icon
« on: July 24, 2017, 05:05:20 PM »
I have a scan scheduled every evening and really don't want to see a badge on the task bar icon when I come in and have to review that the scan found nothing and dismiss the alert from within the app every single day. Unsure if there is an option to disable this? I'm all for badges if something needs to be communicated - but not when everything is going well.

Simplest answer would be to drop your scans back to once a week - fortnight or monthly, not necessary to scan daily with a real-time anti virus.

I've told them to include "Don't show warnings on tray icon" before they released the feature. I personally don't like it either.
