Suppress PDQ link connection pop up
From my testing today, it appears that the PDQ Link popup indicating a connection has been established, persists with each login. From the Q&A it was noted that it should only happen the first time. Is there any way to suppress this from happening?
Thanks!

I found a workaround to this
- Open Powershell
- Copy and paste the below and save it to a .ps1 file
- Get-Process PDQ.Link.Client | Foreach-Object { $_.CloseMainWindow() | Out-Null } | stop-process –force
- Copy this file to the machines you want to use PDQ Link on
- Create a new task in the task scheduler on the machine you will use PDQ Link
- General Tab - Leave all as defaults except Configure for Win10 (make sure its run as logged in user)
- Trigger Tab - On event. Log = Application. Source = RasClient. Event ID = 20225
- The event 20225 is a successful connection to your network via the PDQ Link Client
- Action Tab - Program/Script = powershell.exe
- Action Tab - Add arguments = C:\Temp\closepdq.ps1 -WindowStyle Hidden (this is the path of where you copied the script to)
- Conditions and Settings Tab - as you want
- Save Task
Close PDQ Link by disconnecting first then exit and reopen it to test.
This will auto hide the PDQ Link window, there will be a brief blue powershell window appear but then disappear quickly.
