Suggested notifications are often useless and annoying. Here are two methods to completely disable suggested notifications in Windows 11.
Windows 11 occasionally displays suggested notifications, which, as the name implies, recommend features in Windows and other Microsoft apps that you might find interesting. For example, you might see notifications urging you to try Game Pass, subscribe to Microsoft 365, enable certain optional features, etc.
While these notifications may be helpful in a small number of cases, they are often unnecessary, create distractions, and can be annoying. Thankfully, you don’t have to disable all notifications just to stop these notifications. Instead, you can disable the suggested notifications themselves via the Settings app or the notifications panel.
In this quick tutorial, let me show you how to disable suggested notifications in Windows 11 in two ways. Let’s get started.
