The new Notification & Action Center in Windows 10
looks great. The Action Center is split into two major sections – Notifications
and Quick Actions and lets you take a look at all the notifications from all
different apps, and even the system. But if you wish, you can disable Action
Center in Windows 10. Let us see how to do it by tweaking the
Windows Registry.
Disable Notification & Action Center in Windows 10
First create a system restore point and then
right-click on Start button to open the WinX Menu.
Select Run, and in the space provided, type regedit
and hit Enter to open the Registry Editor.
Having done that, navigate to the following registry
key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer
Now, right-click on the empty space in the right pane
and select New > DWORD (32-bit).
Name it DisableNotificationCenter.
Now, double-click on it and give it a value of 1.
Click on OK and exit the Registry Editor.
By following these instructions, you will have
disabled the Notification and Action Center in Windows 10.
Restart your computer to see the change.
You will find that the Action Center is missing from
the taskbar!
To enable Action Center back, simply delete DisableNotificationCenter
or change its value to 0 and restart your Windows 10 PC.
