How do I get rid of these irritating in-game pop-ups (see attached pic - lower left corner of the pic).
I have checked the Options-->Gameplay-->In-game settings and found the setting "Show in-game guide popups".
It is unclicked, but doesn't seem to stop them.

Maybe it's called something else?

Thanks.

You will see each of them once per city.
A mild irritation at best,
it also probably saved CO soooo much hassle here as the majority of the human race need to be told more than once

Will I also see the other ones once a day? They seem to randomly pop-up anywhere on the screen.
Seems odd you can't turn them off.

What does the option "Show in-game guide popups" do? Anything?

That should usually just remove those pop-up guides. For each new game.. or it is because I also play my game moded..

I see you are already playing with mods, maybe try and use the Hide It! mod:

Appreciate the response. I'll take a look at Hide It" to see if that minimizes the distraction.

@paulp575 You can disable them via Options -> Gameplay.
I did disable it there, but it still pops up.
I've been told (above) they will do that the first time you play each day.
Also been told - haven't tried it yet - to check the mod Hide It!.
Will be doing that the next time I play.

To give you a more sensible answer.
It will give you each message once, i barely notice it cause i can just press B (controller)
This will happen when going through mile stones / unlocks, it is saved with the save file as viewed

BTW, updates like to reset it
