  3. Step 3: Scroll down a bit to the Notifications section, then disable (i.e., toggle off) the setting for Get tips, tricks, and suggestions as you use Windows.

Have you looked in Windows Media Player > Tools > Options > Player > Customise Updates and Player Settings.

Which of the eight boxes are ticked? On mine only the 3rd and 7th boxes are ticked. :)

Hope this is of some use. :)
