Can anyone give me advice as to how to disable the annoying communicator pop up? I’ve tried adjusting the settings and have even turned it off in the task manager and renamed the executable (WScommCntr1.exe) from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared. But it still pops up. Any solution would be much appreciated.
