 * Hi [@kateeba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kateeba/),
 * Could you please navigate to Plugins > All Plugins and check if you have the 
   [WooCommerce Admin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-admin/) plugin 
   installed?
 * If you do, the notice is referring to that plugin and you can deactivate it if
   you don’t have a need for it.
 * If you need further assistance on this, please share a screenshot of the notice
   and your site’s System Status report to help us understand your setup and help
   further.
 * You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then“
   Copy for support”. Once you’ve done that, you can paste it here.
 * Cheers!

 * Hi [@kateeba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kateeba/),
 * I just confirmed why you’re seeing the notice.
 * It’s because WooCommerce Admin is bundled with WooCommerce ever since 4.0, but
   the plugin is also available separately so you can update the Admin part of WooCommerce
   for new reporting features even if you aren’t quite yet ready to upgrade the 
   latest release of WooCommerce.
 * This notice was added to let you know that the plugin isn’t being used. When 
   WooCommerce is fully updated and activated, you can safely deactivate the WooCommerce
   Admin plugin without losing the latest reporting features.
 * I hope this helps!

 * Hi,
    We’ve not heard back from you in a while, so I’m marking this thread as 
   resolved. Hopefully, the above info was helpful and you were able to proceed 
   and deactivate the WooCommerce Admin plugin.
 * If you have further questions, please feel free to open a new topic.
 * Thanks.
