Pop up Notification requests

Recently, I have seen an increase in sites (including TenForums) generating Pop Up boxes asking permission to send Notifications.



This type is particularly infuriating as it does not appear to disappear unless you click on the "Allow" or "Block" options.

I've searched the Forum but there are so many hits, I did not find anything about this particular type of Pop up.

I use the current version of Edge, I have Notifications turned off, I have AdBlock Plus installed (with a good number of sites whitelisted), but still see these frequently.

I cannot say I will never want Notifications, but I am 99% sure that I never now or in the future, want a web site to send me notifications.

Can I stop these?

I did look through the Tutorials, and I found nothing on Edge.

I stated in my original post that I was using Edge.

I forgot that

The new Edge isn't entirely—or even mostly, so far—a Microsoft effort, though. Edge is now based on the open source Chromium browser, which is the underpinning of Google Chrome

In which case my previous post could be relevant.

So I'll have a look at the link you supplied.

Try installing ad blocker extension like
AdBlock Plus

Already installed

Finally I've turned on

Quiet Notifications

- That may have made a difference already (or it may be cookies stopping it.)

Thanks for the help.
