I'm programmatically creating notebooks containing dynamic content. When a new notebook is being created, a window pops up:

enter image description here

I then manually click on "Continue" and it will create the notebook. The same steps happen for each notebook being created. How to automatically deal with this?

You can programatically change DynamicEvaluationTimeout like this:

SetOptions[$FrontEnd, "DynamicEvaluationTimeout" -> 30] 

On my machine it was set to 6 by default.

Similary for DynamicUpdating where the options are True, False and Automatic

SetOptions[$FrontEnd, "DynamicUpdating" -> True] 

I think that just changing DynamicEvaluationTimeout to something high enough should fix your problem.
