Apple menu -> System Settings -> Notifications -> Time Machine. Slider should be right there.

Monterey update Notifications when I'm already on Ventura I have macOS Ventura 13.3.1 installed and running on my 2019 iMac but at least once a week I have a notification reminding me to update to the latest version of Monterey. I've tried everything to stop the notifications and I cannot find any way of stopping them. Has anyone encountered the same or have a solution?

Frequent System Notifications and alerts Since a few days I get frequent notifications (see image) which I can only switch off when I disable System Notifications but I wonder what kind of hack this is and how I can remove it. When I click on the notifications, I am redirected to Yahoo in the Brave browser, but it also opens Safari asking to scan the mac mimicking McAfee but via the URL semaricom.com, a bad reputation website. I did not try any further steps.

On my list of applications under Notifications, Time Machine does not appear.
