How to Remove Proxmox “No Valid Subscription” Errors

Every time you log in to Proxmox or update it, there’s an error that pops up telling you that you haven’t purchased an enterprise license key. If you are using Proxmox in an enterprise environment, I would recommend buying a license (even though it’s not required). You’ll get access to an enterprise repository that contains stable security and software updates. But if you run Proxmox non-commercially and want to remove the no subscription error messages, follow the instructions below.

Dual Boot Windows & Linux with Encrypted Hard Drive

I recently started moving away from closed source software like Windows and Google products. One of my latest projects is to move away from Windows OS as much as possible. However, since I have a Surface device, Ubuntu doesn’t come with all of the drivers. The main issues I encountered were that the touch screen doesn’t work and the WiFi doesn’t come back after the system is suspended.
