Periodic system notification ~ nothing new #138
Description
Every two days or so, I will see a notification icon in my system tray for this app. Clicking the icon opens mintreport on the System Reports tab, and it is invariably blank. Obviously, I am not keen to disable this app entirely, but what a waste of time!
Firstly, why is this app showing a notification at all?
Secondly, how can I stop the nefarious behavior please =)

Are you sure it's not reminding you about missing language packs or something? Check the other tabs. There might be something in there you can choose to dismiss/ignore that's causing the problem. I personally just disable mintreport because I find it very annoying.

So, the language packs have already been marked as ignored, as well as Set up System Restore. And one other tab has some info re Crash Reports (two this month). Okay then, I didn't know if was okay to just disable the entire app ... I thought it might be connected to MintUpdate or similar. I will do that now, because yes, it is very annoying. Thanks for your prompt reply =)

By disable, I mean I just stop it from autostarting.
