In Windows 10 we usually receive notifications on a regular basis. They can be those that come from the operating system itself, such as saying that there is a failure or we have updates available, but also the applications can issue notifications. In addition, there are times when several can reach us at the same time. So we have to prioritize some in our case.
This is something we can manage at all times in Windows 10. The operating system has a way to manage the priority of the notifications we receive, so we limit this in some way. Thus, if several arrive at the same time, we will see the most important ones first.
While it is unusual for let’s get a lot of notifications at the same time, the priority option can serve us on more occasions. Since there are certain notifications that we really want to see, we do not want to miss, because they provide some important information. While there are others that may not be so decisive.
How to change priority of notifications in Windows 10
The notification priority option in Windows 10 has two sections. On the one hand, we are going to be able to give priority to these notifications, making some of them appear ahead of others, in this sense.
In addition, we also have the possibility of limit the number of notifications that we will see on the screen. So we configure this to our liking at all times in a simple way.
We are going to make use of the Windows 1st configuration in this case.
To open it, we can use the Win + I key combination on the computer and it will open in a few seconds.
We can also open the start menu and then click on the gear icon on the left side. These two ways will then open the computer settings. Once it is open, we can start.
We will then enter the system section, which is usually the first one that appears on the screen in that case. When we are inside it, we look at the left side of the screen, where we have a column with all kinds of options.
Among the options that come out, we find the Notifications and actions section, which is the one we have to click on in this case. We will then see in the center of the screen the options in this section. Click on the notifications of each app, to manage this.
In this case, we are interested in two sections as we have already mentioned. On the one hand, we will look at the option of a number of notifications visible in the activity center. Below is a drop-down list awaits us, where we have various options from which to choose.
We will have to select in our case how many we consider appropriate to be displayed in Windows 10. If it turns out that it is not appropriate, we can always change it, in the same way. But the idea is to have a low number in this sense so that they are not too much or too annoying.
On the other hand, we find the priority of notifications in the activity center.
In this case, we are given three options in total from which to choose: Normal, high, and above. Below each of them, we find a brief description, which allows us to know better in what consistency and what we can expect from them.
So when we have found what we consider is best on our Windows 10 computer, we select it. It is quite simple, and think that we always have the possibility to modify this.
Therefore, with these steps, we are changing the priority of notifications from the activity center in Windows 10. It is not something complicated as you can see, but we can configure it in a few steps.
So whenever you want to do it, it can be modified on your computer, the steps are always the same. A good way to give a much more personalized use to our computer at all times, with better notification management.
