How do I disable the message (via registry/script)

Do you want to get started with Microsoft Web Platform to stay connected with latest Web Platform Components?

It seems like a trivial one click dismissal but I have cloud formation Windows 2012 R2 server builds in AWS which are spun up and killed off regularly.

It's driving me nuts when I log onto a fresh box and load the IIS panel. I tried procmon to see what changes when I click no-don't-bug-me-about-this-again but haven't managed to find the setting.

It cannot be done easily as the setting is stored in

%APPDATA%\Microsoft\WebManagement\7.0.0.0\InetMgr.preferences

(source)

Luckily however, I am an AutoHotKey ninja and have this chocolatey package installed as part of my automation

choco install web-platform-disable-prompt

Update: The chocolatey package only works inside a shell session - ie: RDP. It won't work over WinRM in Packer for example. A work around may be to inject it as a one time run in StartMenu\Startup
