I don't think you can remove the update window in the esacpe menu.
But how to clean Garry's Mod can I help you with. Go to the folder you have installed Garry's Mod into. I have it installed here "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod". Here you will se a batch file named "FactoryReset-GMod". Just open the file while Garry's Mod is closed.
Alas, I know it
Sure, you can remove the news-box if you really really want to, not that I personally think it was a bad addition or anything; You just have to edit a template html-file to disable it, rather than get rid of it completely:
Go to your Garry's Mod directory. You'll want to navigate around a bit and find the specific html-file:
--> .../garrysmod/html/template/main.html
(As a full example: D:/Games/Steam/SteamApps/common/GarrysMod/garrysmod/html/template/main.html)
Open it with Notepad, or preferably something that also works as a syntax highlighter, like Notepad++
Navigate to the bottom of the file, where you should find a block of code like this:
https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/321820/bb2540df-b058-47da-9d5b-7efc6dc6c43d/image.png
That div-block is your news-box, and to disable it, all you need to do is surround it with a comment-element: "<!--" in the front, and "-->" after.
The result should be something like this:
https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/321820/e12687bc-2eb5-4fb0-8617-435aa826db0b/image.png
And then you are done.
I just want to end this off by stating that in case you do get something wrong, don't save and exit notepad from that file before you actually start the game and verify that it works properly. That way you can undo your changes in case you mess up. Otherwise you'll have to remove the file and verify the game before you try again.
Thank you!
