Windows 10: Action Center and notifications

While I like having most notifications in one discrete place, I did use to have an hourly notification pop up. It helped me keep track of the time and my computer usage. Lately however, I've found that it just winds up in the Action Center, which doesn't help me. Ironically, it's not intrusive enough. Is there a way to bypass the Action Center? So that I can actually see my hourly pop up?


Specifically, it's the Cool Clock extension on Google Chrome.
