Getting rid of Error 623 on logon in Windows 10

Since I upgraded my Windows 8 to Windows 10, I got a side effect of error 623 (“System could not find the phone book entry for this connection”) popping up on each logon.

Search in the Internet for solution did not yield useful results for my condition, so, for a while, I resigned to live with this problem and closing this pesky popup every time I turn on my computer.

Disabling this task did the trick for me. Hopefully, my experience will benefit others.
