Turn off Background Geoprocessing Prompt

We just upgraded from ArcGIS 10.3 to 10.4.1 and use the Business Analyst extension.  Now every time we open up ArcMap, we get this pop-up window suggesting that we download the additional software components for background geoprocessing. Is there a way we can stop this annoying popup every time we open up a map?  We don't want to use the background geoprocessing ...  I'm hoping someone has found a way to stop the prompts.

Thanks!

You could turn off background processing from Geoprocessing > Geoprocessing options Uncheck "Enable Geoprocessing Options".

Thank you Jayanta, but that didn't turn off the popup window.  It still appears every time we start up ArcMap.
