How to Turn Off Windows Spotlight Notifications

By Timothy Tibbetts

Windows 10 offer Spotlight Notifications that can become cluttered and requires you to remove them one at a time. While you can't clear all of the notification, you can entirely block them.

You can make this change in the Registry Editor.

Open the Registry Editor.

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CloudContent

Right-click on the right and click New > DWORD (32-bit Value).

Name that DisableWindowsSpotlightOnActionCenter.

Double-click on DisableWindowsSpotlightOnActionCenter and change the Value data to 1.

You can change the Value data back to 0 to restore the Spotlight Notifications or delete the DisableWindowsSpotlightOnActionCenter DWORD.
