Oke I just done that, wiped the browser cache and rebooted Proxmox node.

However I still get:

This is what my update repositories look like, so that part does work:

@MickLesk Using a single node, executing the script over ssh or through the console directly on the node.

@MickLesk Strange, maybe I have some specific iso that's giving problems? I'm installing bear metal on a NUC. I'm using proxmix-ve_8.4-1.ISO. Is there any information I can get you for better debugging? Did you use the latest version of proxmox?

I just tried the script after having to reinstall from ISO (proxmox-ve_8.4-1.iso). The script ran, but failed to remove the nag window on login. I logged in using an incognito tab and had no pop up. I hard cleared cache in my browser and signed in again to find the nag pop up was gone.

I have the same issue. Using private mode in firefox (so no cache present) and still seeing the nag.

Yeah, did that too. After removing the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/no-nag-script and running the helper-script again it's finally working. Idk what happened.. :O

Just to quickly add, in case anyone comes across this with PVE 8.4.5, it appears that deleting /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/no-nag-script and rerunning the post-pve-install helper script does not remove the subscription nag from PVE 8.4.5. When I get a chance, assuming someone doesn't get to it before I do, I'll get a new issue opened.
