Annoying pop ups "A new PowerShell stable release is available: vx.x.x" every time!!

[gbr000]

Prerequisites

• Write a descriptive title.
• Make sure you are able to repro it on the latest released version
• Search the existing issues.
• Refer to the FAQ.
• Refer to Differences between Windows PowerShell 5.1 and PowerShell.

Steps to reproduce

1. Start PowerShell

Expected behavior

I want just the clear empty (default) screen from PowerShell,

`PS C:\Users\userXXX>`

I don't want any new messages telling me what I should do or not! It's distracting me and I need consistent focus on my projects.

Give user option to remind a new update every:

• new release
• every week
• every month
• never

Actual behavior

A new PowerShell stable release is available: v7.3.7

every time I open PowerShell when it releases a new version,

=================================
NOTE:

I completely understand that's not advisable to anyone who works in a company, but I have PowerShell for recreational purposes at home only.

I do understand PowerShell fixes many bugs every release, and I am very thankful for that, but for now it's annoying the amount of reminders it gives me every X while.

I believe if it showed only "once" the first time you opened the program, but the following times do not. It would make things a lot cleaner, and give me proper pace to continue my work without interrupting it. I don't want to stop working every time I update PowerShell.

Please fix this,
