Microsoft included a lot of features in Windows. For example, the start menu, Task view, Cortana and more. You know it was a big problem managing notifications on Windows. But, this particular problem is going to be solved with Windows 10’s Action Center.

Action Center can help you to manage notifications in a better way. You can check all your notifications in Action Center and therefore, this is possible to open or skip them one by one. This is such an awesome inclusion of Windows 10. As Action Center is an in-built tool of Windows, you do not need to install any third party software to get it. Just install any version of Windows to access Action Center.

Action Center does follow a predefined algorithm to manage notifications. For example, it doesn’t show notifications according to the receiving time. Instead, you will get notifications according to app. This particular thing has an advantage as well as disadvantage.

The advantage of this feature is you can get notifications according to apps. That means, it would be possible to check all the notifications of any app at once.
