CTOnews.com May 1 News, for regular users of Windows, the pop-up windows that appear from time to time in the lower right corner can be annoying and intrusive.

Like mobile phones, Win11 relies heavily on Windows push notifications for first-party or third-party push notifications for applications and websites. Almost every application on Windows 11 tries to send notifications to users, and they usually don't have any important information.

For example, antivirus software often conducts regular security checks on devices and then sends notifications. Similarly, weather apps, websites subscribed to by Microsoft Edge or Chrome, and other applications continue to send notifications to users.

In response, Microsoft has made some changes to Windows to reduce the daily reminders that users see. For example, Windows 11 brings "focus assist" (Focus Assist) to users, which can help users focus on their work by reducing notifications from applications such as Outlook and Edge.

Now, Microsoft is trying different ways to reduce spam notifications so that users can better focus on important issues. According to the references in the preview version of Windows 11, Microsoft is developing a new feature called Smart opt-out (Smart opt-out), which will reduce unwanted notifications in the operating system.

Of course, Smart opt-out is not based on AI, but it does help you solve problems to some extent, such as disabling notifications for less commonly used apps.

For example, if you do not interact with Outlook notifications for a month, you will see a message "turn off notifications from Outlook?" A reminder. This provides two options: close and do not change. This update is expected to have a positive impact on the user experience of most Windows 11 users, as too many notifications may bore users.

In fact, e-mail filters have used a similar approach before, which makes Windows 11's proposal to disable notifications more logical. CTOnews.com warns that the Smart exit feature will not affect your frequently used application notifications, and this feature should enter the production channel within a few months.

In addition, Microsoft provides users with Windows 11 "emergency notifications" to better control high-priority notifications from first-party and third-party applications that can bypass the Focus Assist (do not Disturb) setting.

In other ways, Microsoft is improving its emergency notification feature with the new control View Notification to view notification content and protect privacy when using full-screen applications.
