Is there any way to get rid of this Whatsapp notification?

[Gallopinhairpin]

As per title. Whatsapp has recently started popping up this notification - at least every day and sometimes several times a day - that says it can't complete a backup. I don't want it to do any backups and when I "Tap for more info" as far as I can see backups are turned off - see attached screenshots.

So can anyone suggest a way I can get rid of this irritating notification? All ideas will be very welcome.

I just usually exit out of it, there is nothing I could ever do with it.

I don't want it to do any backups

I think you missed this part of my post. Those fixes are for situations where the user wants backups.
Perhaps I should have explained that before starting this topic I did an internet search and those fixes came up but they don't address my problem.
I have tried clearing the cache but it's not made any difference.

If it continues to annoy me with no resolution I may well do exactly that.

I've just had notification of a reply to this topic but when I got here there was no sign of it. Could a Mod or the OP have deleted it?

Go to the app and shut off notifications.

That doesn't answer my question. I actually received the email notification (and visited this site) on my PC.

I can obviously stop following this topic if I don't want notifications but I wanted an explanation as to why when someone has apparently posted a reply it doesn't appear. I just wondered if a mod might have deleted it as "unsuitable content" before I got to read it.

The poster in question was shown as @Hellboy71 in the notification.

There was a spam post left on this thread that was removed. The Post was left yesterday PM. Beyond that, there has been no recent activity prior to your post I quote.

Thank you. That's the explanation I was looking for.
