This tutorial explains how to turn off app notifications entirely in Windows 10. As the latest in Microsoft’s line of Operating Systems, Windows 10 fully supports the modern style apps introduced by its precursor, Windows 8. The modern style apps include many unique features, such as the ability to run in the background, live tiles, and real-time desktop notifications.

These app notifications are really handy, as they instantly let you know what’s going on with the app. In one of my recent articles, I explained how you can manage app notifications on a per app basis. But what if you don’t want to receive any notifications (maybe for a little while, just to relax a bit) at all?

You’ll be glad to know, that ain’t a problem either. Windows 10 easily lets you disable any and all notifications completely. Thrilled? Head past the break to know how you can turn off app notifications entirely in Windows 10.
