Snap store update wont go away

Open a terminal window and execute the command

sudo snap refresh

What happens?

 Thank you, but how do I open a "terminal window"?  I have gone through Activities and Software and Applications, none say "terminal window".  GJ

Search just for "terminal" or use the shortcut key combination ctrl-alt-t

Note, that you will get a request to enter your password for confirming ad administarive action, and when typing the password, you will not get any feedback (no echo, not even '*' placeholders). Just "blind" type you password upon the request and press the enter key.

 Hi, and thank you again for your reply.  I think I may have fixed it, but in a different way (btw, how do you exit a terminal screen once you get into it?  "Exit" command, or "Esc" key?).
I have switched off update notifications in the updater application.  I have also found that, click on the date, and the calender comes up, complete with a copy of the notification in the left-hand panel, which I cleared.  There is a "do not disturb" button which I have switched on, which gives me a bell and slash icon to remind me, but I think that may stop the annoying pop-up (the GDPR (!) pop-ups for cookies are quite annoying enough!)  I don't even know what "snap-store" is about.  I get messages saying the whole system is up-to-date, but then offers a new version of Ubuntu.  I usually try to search for any bug reports before updating.  I have been using computers since 80-column punch card days - I don't trust 'em!
Thanks again, and I will close the enquiry.
Geoff. Johnson.

"how do you exit a terminal screen once you get into it?"

Either enter the command "exit" or press ctrl-d (for EOT - end of transmission), or close it by mouse click on the "x" sign in the top corner, just as you would close some other windows.
