Disable Get Even More Out of Windows

Hello, I'm having a problem with this screen appearing on my computers. I want it, and anything related to halting startup disabled.

What I've tried so far is setting the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UserProfileEngagement\ScoobeSystemSettingEnabled to 0, as that was the advice I got online. Didn't work.

I've also tried unchecking the "Show me the Windows welcome experience after updates and occassionally when I sign in to highlight what's new and suggested" option in Settings->System->Notifications as that was supposed to help too. Didn't work.

What do I need to do to get Microsoft to stop bothering me? Preferably something with a CLI so I can automate it.

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Settings

    thanks jonas!

    this happens randomly for me, so unsure if i can really test this. However i have put in the setting now to apply to every user.

    it was still happening, just had an occurrence over the weekend. hopefully this key finally resolves it.

    im on 1903 currently, so hopefully the key is backwards compatible and effective. I am not moving to 20xx for at least a year.

    Now that i know what key it is, i could search that key and come up with some interesting results. This here article, provides more context on how to check it:

    https://www.windowslatest.com/2020/06/07/windows-10-full-screen-setup-prompts-are-back/

    just go to settings -> notifications and actions and check if "Suggest ways I can finish setting up my device to get the most out of Windows" is checked or not. I can only find this setting in version 2004 which it appears taht some of my machines have auto upgraded to.. DAMNIT

    (edit i should say that the machines with this problem are still on 1903, but the SETTING in the settings application only appears on 2004)

    Thanks for posting. Very clever workaround. I will use it here. At least my data acquisition PCs won't miss data from our in situ environment sampling equipment.

    i dont think it worked, because i have about 10 machines showing this this morning. unless they just started up and didnt have time to apply the gpo before booting into windows. its digital signage so perhaps.
