How to disable this annoying message that probably appears on any Dell laptop after about one year of usage (my personal experience from 3 different laptops)?
My Dell Feature Enhancement pack version is 2.2.1. There are some pieces of advice in the web, but they clearly don't fit this software version. It would be great not to have to remove this software completely.

The messages can be turned off with group policy administrative templates provided by DFEP. First you need to install them by copying the contents of %PROGRAMFILES%\Dell\Feature Enhancement Pack\policydefinitions to %SYSTEMROOT%\PolicyDefinitions. Then run gpedit.msc, navigate to Local Computer Policy->Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->System->Dell->Feature Enhancement Pack->System Events, open the Battery policy, enable it and select the desired messages to disable.
Alternatively, you may use this reg file to disable the three battery health warning messages:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Dell\FeatureEnhancementPack\SystemEvent\Battery]
"BatteryCaution1"=dword:00000804
"BatteryCaution2"=dword:00000808
"BatteryReplace"=dword:00000810

I used a different method on my Dell Windows 7 laptop:
Of course, this will keep the whole package from starting up.
But I don't seem to need it.

If you are going to prevent the tool from running, wouldn’t it be easier and safer (due to potential software vulnerabilities) to just uninstall the software? – Ramhound – 2019-06-21T19:27:19.180
