    OK, give me a couple of minutes and I'll come up with another .REG file that reverts the change the previous one made.

    In the meantime, if you scroll to the top of Notifications & actions, do you see a message like this:

    Access Denied said:
    You have to reboot after making a registry change I believe. A total reboot, not the fast boot either.
    Unlike a lot of registry changes under \Software\Policies\, the one I provided is dynamic with no sign out/sign in or reboot needed. I tested toggling it on and off several times before attaching it.

    The only thing that is needed is to change to another category in 'Settings' (e.g. 'Sound' or 'Focus assist') then back to 'Notifications & actions' again as 'F5' doesn't refresh 'Settings'.

    @Cerawy... before I provide an 'undo' REG file, I need to know if the *Some settings are hidden or managed by you organisation. message is present at the top of Notifications & actions. (f yes then it's a policy setting... but your 'My Computer' details in your forum profile show you're using Win 10 Home... so no 'Policy Editor'.)

    EDIT: It's 4 am here so I'm going to bed.

    I don't see a message like that, but i do see a message that says select a sender to see more settings. Some senders might have their own notification settings. If so, open the sender to change them.

    Ah, then it's not a policy setting.

    Download and run the following REG file to undo the changes made by the first one.

    System - Notifications & actions - REMOVE changes to toggle state.reg

    Once the file has been merged into the registry, click on another category in the left-hand navigation pane then click back on Notifications & actions again for the change to take effect.

    Can you provide a screenshot? I'm confused which toggles are greyed out.

    The options are still greyed out.

    I think your own screengrab shows some of it.

    I got five messages that are greyed out.


    • Autoplay.
    • Show notifications on the lock screen.
    • Show alarms, reminders and incoming VOIP calls on the lock screen.
    • AutoPlay.
    • Security and maintenance.



    Im guessing some of them would get rid of the annoying popup messages.

    My apologies...

    By 'Can you provide a screenshot?', I meant a screenshot of what you are seeing on your affected system, not a screenshot taken from a TenForums tutorial.

    Sadly, i cant give you a better screengrab, because my version of windows is in a completely different language. But i have listed the five options that are greyed out in my previous post.

    Language doesn't matter, we can infer what it should be if we know what page you took a screenshot of. A picture shows more than words can say.
