Windows 10: notifcation tab popping up

Hi Everyone, I hope you can help.

After downloading windows 10 twice, the notification tab keeps popping up on the right hand side of my screen. I cannot get rid of it and it is driving me mad. I have turned off all notification settings, including tips and rebooted. No joy.

I suspect this is a windows bug but I cannot find anywhere to sort this out and the Windows 10 has been around for ages.

Can anyone help?


Regards,

Dave

Pop up blocker

Hi,

Pop-up blocker helps user to prevent pop-ups from displaying in a user's Web browser.

Follow these steps to block pop-ups in Internet Explorer:

• Open Internet Explorer.
• Open the gear icon at the upper right of the Internet Explorer.
• Select Internet Options.
• Under Privacy tab, put a check mark on Turn on Pop-up Blocker.
• Click OK.

Follow these steps to block pop-ups in Microsoft Edge:

• Open Microsoft Edge.
• Open More (icon with three dots) and select Settings.
  
• Click View advanced settings.
• Turn Block pop-ups to On.

Let us know how it goes.

Windows Security sign in pop up

Since you are still getting this pop up window, the next suggestion we have is to reset the network. Kindly refer to the steps below:

• Click on Start.
• Go to Settings.
• Select Network & Internet.
• On the Status tab, click on Network reset.

Doing this will make Windows forget the connection credentials and other networking components. You may have to re-enter you WiFi credentials if you will attempt to connect to your home network.

Let us know the results.
