You can control this through the registry with this DWORD value:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software \Microsoft \Windows \CurrentVersion \Policies \Explorer]
NoLowDiskSpaceChecks = 1 (Show = 0, Don't Show = 1, Default = 0)

There must be a “s” at the end of the DWORD - so the DWORD should look like this: “NoLowDiskSpaceChecks”!!! :\
