Unlinked Gradle Project. Green Message, link doesn't work

So when I open up my project in whcih we have a pom file and a Gradle file in the root it pops up a message saying

Unlinked Gradle Project.

Import Gradle Project<Link>. This will also enable Gradle Tool Window

Don't want to see this message for the project again: press here<Link>.

When I click the Press Here link to never see that message for the project again, it does absolutely NOTHING. The message stays popped up and I get the message everytime I open up my project.

Our project is a Maven project which is why I don't want to use Gradle or make it a Gradle project.

Thanks

Mark
