Disabling Notes popping up

Question

In Sage ERP 2018, is there any way to stop the Notes windows from automatically popping up when I enter an item number, etc, short of removing the feature? (i.e is there a registry or ini entry to modify its behaviour)

If you're not familiar with doing anything in SQL, then I would probably avoid doing this. 
 select * from CSAPP where SELECTOR = 'KN' 
 delete from CSAPP where SELECTOR = 'KN' 
 select * from DATADICT where TABLENAME like 'KN%' 
 delete from DATADICT where TABLENAME like 'KN%' 
 
 drop table KNNOTEH 
 drop table KNNTBLOB 
 drop table KNNTDIS 
 drop table KNSEQ

Even if the user does not have authorization to Notes, Notes pop-up still appears. It just disable the user rights to edit the Notes. I know the purpose of Notes is to alert the users but there are many users within our company that do not need to be alerted so Notes pooping up can be distracting and annoying for them. I hope someone can suggest a fix to this ASAP.

If you want to get rid of the notes, including what is stored in them and stop them from appearing then you need to delete the KN record in CSAPP, then delete all the records in DATADICT where the TABLENAME like 'KN%' and finally drop all tables where the name starts with KN. On my test system, this doesn't appear to have caused me any issues and so far, fingers crossed, the notes have finally disappeared.

I'd agree regarding the Tairox program. It's an excellent product. The SDK module is fine, but we don't install that on customer's systems. The SQL script does the same as a deactivation.
