    Weird notification


    Today when i logged onto my computer i got and alert which i think was from Microsoft Defender but I dont know for sure. It said there was a security message. I clicked it and it said my computer was vulnerable and I needed to turn this setting on. I slide the bar and closed the window. I immediately afterword thought that maybe it wasn’t legit and maybe it was a hacker. I saw vulnerable and panicked. Does this sound like a typical notification from windows? Unfortunately you cant look at old notifications.

    :)

  2. (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.

    Follow these steps to check if it works:

    Step 1: Open the Windows Settings menu by pressing the Windows Key and “I,” or alternatively search for Settings in the Windows search bar and click the corresponding result.

    Step 2: Click Notifications & Actions in the left-hand menu. This will take you to a screen providing access to all of the settings related to notifications and the Action Center.

    Step 3: Click the System icon, then select Notifications and actions from the left-hand menu.

    Step 4: Look for the Notifications subheading, where you will see a number of toggles for various types of notifications. The following is a list of the settings you can toggle on this screen:

    • Get notifications from apps and other senders
    • Show notifications on the lock screen
    • Show alarms, reminders, and incoming VoIP calls on the lock screen
    • Hide notifications when duplicating my screen
    • Get tips, tricks, and suggestions as you use Windows
    You may just turn them off the notification as you need.

    Weird Notifications

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    1. Since when are you facing this issue?
    2. Have you recently made any changes prior to this issue?
    3. Which security software is installed on your device?

    As you have mentioned you are receiving notification, this is happening because you might have turned on the Mail app notifications. In order to get the confirmation, please login to your mail app account and verify whether you have received the same
    email which is occurring on the Taskbar/Action center. If yes, you can either unsubscribe from those emails or block them.

    If you doesn’t want wish to receive the mail app notifications, you can go ahead and turn off the mail app notifications. To do so,

    1. Open the Mail app.
    2. On the bottom left pane, click on settings.
    3. Under Settings, choose Options.
    4. Under Notifications, toggle Show in Action center button to off.

    Change notifications settings for all senders

    Refer the article Change Notification and actions settings in Windows 10
    for more information.

    Hope it helps.
