I recently upgraded my system to Mojave and still have a lot of 32bit apps which presently I have no intention of replacing (MS Office).

Has anyone found a way of totally disabling the "This app is not optimized" message for 32 bit apps. The pop-ups keep occurring about every 30 days.

I found this setting but appears to work in High Sierra, but not in Mojave.
Code:
defaults write -g CSUIDisable32BitWarning -boolean TRUE

I don't know of a way, however, unless you don't plan on updating macOS this year to 10.15.X, those 32 bit apps are going to stop working all together. As for replacing MS Office, you might want to take a look at Softmaker Office which many of us are considering. They also have a Freeoffice which works real well.

I dont plan on updating to 10.15. I only update my OS every 3 or 4 versions. Once things are working I am happy and dont need the latest version. Just would like to get rid of this annoying message.
