If notifications are interrupting your work or play, turn them off.

Getting pop-up notifications with important news or alerts may be convenient, but it can also be a nuisance when you’re trying to concentrate on your work or watch a movie. Over time, a lot of Windows 10 users develop an aversion to the bottom right corner of their computer screen, where something is always flying out. Fortunately, there’s an easy fix.

Note: These instructions are for Windows 10 only. Microsoft has stopped updating previous versions of the operating system, making them vulnerable to viruses, Trojans, and other threats, so if you are still using Windows 7, 8.1, or an earlier version, we recommend upgrading to Windows 10 as soon as possible.
