Windows 10 is a system that seeks that the end user has the best options for use and is always attentive to everything that occurs within it, which is why by default each notification that is generated, either from the operating system or from an application, make a sound . This logically captures the user's attention to warn them that they have received a new email, that an update has been downloaded, that a product is available, etc..
But, just as it helps to stay on top of things, it can also be a factor in setting aside current work and losing focus on what we are doing, which is why we have two options to silence notifications in Windows 10 and TechnoWikis will explain each one of them for better control of these.
