In Windows 10, this keyboard shortcut would open Action Center, so it is safe to say that Microsoft decided to replace Action Center with "quick settings" on Windows 11. You can pull the quick settings menu up by using a single keyboard shortcut Windows key + A. Quick settings does not have a dedicated menu in settings. Whatever it's called, I still don't use it, but you can use it to stop yourself from being distracted by setting specific times when you can and cannot receive your notifications. In case you forgot, Focus assist was called quiet hours in earlier versions of Windows 10.
There is also a separate menu for Focus assist. Once here, you can choose to toggle on or off notifications and change what apps you receive notifications from.
When you need to change the notification center settings, there is no dedicated menu in the settings menu. Another thing to keep in mind is that Microsoft may add and/or remove settings from these menus, so this guide may change in the future. On this current Windows Insider build, the settings are minimal and don't allow you to make any drastic changes. You can right-click any icon on the taskbar and choose "unpin," or alternatively, right-click anywhere on the taskbar to be taken directly to the settings.īut, in order to reach the menu on Windows 11, follow these steps.įrom the Taskbar menu, you can change the ability to show or hide the icons that appear, icons that appear on the corner of your taskbar, show or hide icons of programs running in the background, as well as alignment, badging, automatically hide, and multiple display setup. The new Windows 11 taskbar comes centered by default, but you can change it back to the being aligned to the left.
Let's take a look at what you need to do to change the settings in the Taskbar, Notification Center, and Quick settings. With Windows 11, all you need to do is change a few options in settings and you are good to go. Now that Windows 11 is here, I am pumped that I don't have to use extra apps, like TaskBarX to center my Taskbar, or search endlessly for complicated Windows Registry edits to change or remove the amount of information displayed in "quick settings (formerly known as Action Center)." Before Windows 11, I tried as much as possible to emulate a more refined look on Windows 10 using extra apps and Windows Registry edits.
