Renewal nag screen

Yes, another thread about this..
How do I go about turning off the renewal nag screen? I have F-secure SAFE with 7 licenses, 6 of which are in use, and I get to be the lucky one to explain what it means to family members of various technical ability every time it shows up - every day, on every licensed device, at least once per day..
Is a little "don't show this again" checkbox that hard to implement?
Or do you just want to make sure I switch to something else less naggy next time, because its little things like this that makes me look elsewhere..

Hello @Ketora
Please have a look at these articles below;

https://community.f-secure.com/t5/F-Secure-SAFE/how-can-i-stop-the-renewal-popup/m-p/104203#M18494
neither of said links provide a solution to getting a nag screen on every boot, re-logon and at midnight, no matter what else is running in the foreground.
This is not acceptable behavior of so-called anti-malware software.
Dear @Ketora
Sorry for the inconvenience,
They best way to get rid of the pop up, is to renew your subscription.

Provide a way for users to turn OFF the daily unwanted NAG NAG NAG, or you will be losing MANY customers forever.
The "accepted" solution posted by F-Secure is a joke, and is NOT a solution. There is NO way to turn off the nags, which they admit. Their 'solution' is to renew 30+ days early, or to open a (useless) support ticket. This is NOT a solution!
Why they do not provide a way to turn OFF the unwanted, unnecessary, and idiotic daily nags is a mystery! I will NOT be renewing F-Secure, as a daily nag that I cannot disable or opt OUT of is equivalent to MALWARE. Every day and every time I reboot or connect to the Net, F-Secure is blasting me with idiotic renewal messages.
NO MORE! Everyone, if you want relief, you'll have to move on to a different company -- one that is smart enought to NOT nag their existing customers, and which LISTENS to common sense and its customers.
