I regularly receive annoying ads FROM AVG popping up on all my AVG protected devices - Windows 10 Laptops, Android phones, tablets and streaming boxes, etc. These ads regularly suggest I purchase additional AVG products that I don't want or need (such as their Driver Update Service and their AVG VPN service - I already have a VPN from another vendor.)
Look, I like AVG for protection from viruses and malware, but is there any way I can stop this spam from AVG hitting me in the face every time I use one of my protected devices, short of finding another antivirus software vendor?

Okay, answered own question (with help from a better constructed search of these User Forums than I did before posting my question - Hmmm… lesson learned?)
Seems I'll have to adjust my AVG Promotions setting ON EACH DEVICE. This appears to be an option for PRO versions only, which is fair - if you're using the free version, then ads are to be expected, after all…
Android: Click the 'sandwich' icon to bring up the app menu> Settings>Notifications and alerts> AVG Promotions> click off
Windows 10: Open AVG Internet Security> Menu> Settings> General> Popups> INFO POPUPS> Set Duration to 0 (zero) seconds (At least, I think that should work - If there's a better way, please let me know!)
