    Not getting notifications from apps windows 10

    Hi,



    Thank you for taking time to post in our Microsoft Community.



    The application that you disabled are all default apps of Windows 10, that is why they are running in the background process.



    To further isolate this issue, we would like to gather more information in order for us to provide the best possible resolution.



    • What is the current build of Windows 10 installed on your computer?
    • What type of game are your playing?
    • Do you check if your computer meets the minimum specs required for the game that you are playing?
    • Kindly check the game that you are playing if there is a setting that you need to enable in order for you to get notifications.


    In the meantime, we suggest you check the link below for steps on how to get the notifications that you want.





    Feel free to post back if you have further questions.

    (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

    How do i get notifications to show when im playing a game

    Stop notifications while playing games

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand how it feels when notifications keeps popping up while playing a game.



    I would suggest you to turn on focus assist on your PC to avoid notifications popping up while playing games. You can refer the article on

    Turn Focus assist on or off in Windows 10    . Once you turn this on you will not receive notifications while playing games or any important work you are doing.



    If you have any further queries, you can get back to us and we will be more than happy to assist you.



    Regards,

    Prakhar Khare
