    Action Center opens momentarily on left side of screen


    Just a few weeks into Win10 and I've noticed that occasionally when I click the Action Center icon (lower left screen corner) that it opens briefly on the left side, then vanishes to appear from the right side of the screen. This happens infrequently (maybe once daily, so it might be related to a fresh boot-up).

    FWIW this unit was upgraded in place from Win8.1 if that matters.

    Any ideas on this? Apparently screen location isn't a variable for the Action Center, so I'm befuddled.

    :)

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    Step 1: Check for the latest driver update through Windows Updates.

    • At the Start screen, type Windows Update.
    • Click or tap Settings on the right side of the screen, and then select
      Install optional updates from the left results.
    • When the Windows Update control panel opens, click on “Check for Updates” on the top left corner to receive a fresh list of updates.
    Step 2:


    Change notifications in action center

    Action Center bugs?


    I have a clean install of Win 10 1809 about 3 weeks old and already the Action Center is playing up. I have Youtube subscriptions that are sent to my Action Center and most of time the links are not opening, I click it and it just disappears from the Action Center list without opening the Youtube link. Could this be an issue with Chrome/Youtube and the Action Center or the Action Center itself?

    Another issue when I open Action Center is that it very briefly opens from the left side of the screen before opening correctly on the right side. This is happening a lot more intermittently but appears buggy when it occurs. Is anyone else experiencing the same problems? If I recall links were not opening from Action Center in Win 10 1803 either...

    Left Click Causes Action Center to Open

    After upgrading to Windows 10, every time I left-click with my touchpad the action center pops open, or if it is already open it closes. The click actually works and brings focus to the area that I clicked on, but I then have to click again to close the
    action center and continue what I was doing. This also makes the double-click unusable as the focus changes every time I click.

    Fortunately I have a touch screen laptop, and tapping on the touchscreen does not cause the action center to popup, so I at least have that option. I've seen a couple of posts about updating/reinstalling the mousepad driver software, but that has not fixed
    the problem.

    Does anyone no what I can do to stop the action center from popping open? I have an HP Envy TouchSmart.
