Progress reporting can be suppressed using verbose=FALSE as a control argument.

rules <- apriori(Adult, parameter = list(supp = 0.5, conf = 0.9, target = "rules"), control=list(verbose = FALSE))

I have additional questions.
How to silent the output when arules::inspect()
inspect() is not control argument control=list(verbose = FALSE).

The result doesn't silent message even though execute the assignment like this code

> data("Adult")
> rules <- apriori(Adult, control = list(verbose = F))
> res <- inspect(rules[1:10])
