Windows 10: Stop pop up message regarding messaging app in Windows 10.

Hello.


I've got elderly parents who are not up on tech. I updated and cleaned their computer and they are running the latest Windows 10. I have told them all about scam calls, emails and messages and keep my fingers crossed they don't fool for them, but they keep contacting me (which is fine) about the Microsoft messaging app keeps pooping up saying "you have a text message". They check their "non smartphone" and see they don't and they call me thinking the computer is trying to scam them.


How can I stop these messages? The message saying you have a text (when they don't) is exactly something that I warn them about!


Please can Microsoft either change the wording if the pop up can't be stopped or tell me how!!


Thanks!!

:)

 

Is there a way to see a history of the messages that pop up in the bottom right of Windows 10?

I'm trying to overclock at the moment and twice now while in the middle of a Prime 95 test, a message popped up in the bottom right but was only there for half a second or so. It was gone so fast that I couldn't even read any of the message, but I saw it was red with the X meaning bad mojo.

I thought to check event viewer but I don't see anything there. What could the message be? For what it's worth the overclock seems stable. This is a fresh installation of Windows 10 64-bit.

 

Private Message Notifications

Not a bad feature suggestion as it saves you time getting to the gist of the message. EVGA, Anandtech, and OCN has the feature on their site.

 

BSOD error messages, assumed to be from overclocking.

The Stop 0xA message indicates that a kernel-mode process or driver attempted to access a memory location to which it did not have permission, or at a kernel interrupt request level (IRQL) that was too high. A kernel-mode process can access only other processes that have an IRQL lower than, or equal to, its own. This Stop message is typically due to faulty or incompatible hardware or software.

Possible Resolutions:

A Stop 0xA message might occur after installing a faulty device driver, system service, or firmware. If a Stop message lists a driver by name, disable, remove, or roll back the driver to correct the problem. If disabling or removing drivers resolves the issues, contact the manufacturer about a possible update.

A Stop 0xA message might also be due to failing or defective hardware. If a Stop message points to a category of devices (video or disk adapters, for example), try removing or replacing the hardware to determine if it is causing the problem.
