Win 10 Notifications Not Working
I’m using Outlook on Windows 10 and whenever I receive a new email I do get the notification toast but when I open the Action Center, the message isn’t listed there.
I want to get GMail notifications natively in Windows 10 Notifications. How I can enable It? Hi acterhd, You may consider to add your gmail account using Windows Mail app, after that, load Settings, and navigate to System-Notifications and Actions, on the show App notifications list, find the Mail, and make sure the box is selected as On.
Can I add Outlook’s notifications to the Action Center as well so I can quickly see if I received any new emails while I was away from my computer?
Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 make use of Windows 10’s Notifications system but by default, these Notifications aren’t being added to the Action Center.
It is however really easy to configure the Action Center to also collect Outlook’s Notifications so you can quickly see which Notifications you’ve missed. Aside from new email alerts, these notifications also include reminders for appointments, meetings and tasks.
To enable this, you can use the Windows 10 Settings app;
- Go to: Start-> Settings-> System-> Notifications & Actions
- Click on Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016
- Verify that Notifications is set to On.
- Set Show in action center to On.
Outlook’s Notifications can also be shown in Windows 10’s Actions Center.
On Windows 10, Action Center is a feature that groups app and system notifications and puts them into a single interface that can easily be accessed using the taskbar. In addition, Action Center also hosts the quick actions buttons to help you get access to your most-used settings and apps quickly.
Unfortunately, several users have been reporting that after upgrading to the Windows 10 October 2018 Update (version 1809), notifications no longer show in Action Center. While it may seems just another bug in the pile of problems with this feature update, this issue can be traced to the background app feature.
