Windows 10’s Focus Assist feature automatically hides notifications while you’re playing games or using other full-screen applications. But Cortana loves to announce that it’s silencing notifications. Here’s how to turn off those annoying Focus Assist notifications.
Focus Assist is Windows 10’s Do Not Disturb mode. When enabled, it will automatically hide incoming notifications, so they don’t pop up and distract you while you’re playing a game, giving a presentation, or using any full-screen applications. Focus Assist can automatically silence notifications during certain hours of the day, too. You’ll see the notifications when you leave Focus Assist mode. However, Cortana will loudly announce “I’ll field your notifications in Action Center” while you’re playing a game, in full-screen mode, or duplicating your display. Here’s how to silence those messages.
To configure Focus Assist, head to Settings > System > Focus Assist. (You can quickly open the Settings window by pressing Windows+i.)
Under Automatic Rules, click the name of an automatic rule. For example, to disable Focus Assist notifications that appear when you’re playing a game, click “When I’m playing a game.”
Uncheck the “Show a notification in action center when focus assist is turned on automatically” checkbox.
