  1. Make sure you have administrator rights on the running windows. (If you don't this solution is not for you)
  2. Download/Extract the sysinternals-suite
  3. Create and save a .cmd file with the following contents
    taskkill /F /IM SCnotification.exe
    pssuspend.exe CcmExec.exe -nobanner
    shutdown -a
  4. Run the windows terminal with administrator privileges, and from there execute the .cmd (I named the file stop-software-center.cmd)

  5. Check that the CcmExcec.exe process was suspended.enter image description here
