While Windows 11 has much to like, there are a few things Microsoft didn’t get right, including its continued insistence on injecting ads into the operating system.

If you’re seeing pop-ups just above the Windows 11 taskbar, it’s likely computer bloatware urging you to sign up for something you don’t need or reminding you about a feature you don’t want. What these programs are called will differ depending on your PC’s manufacturer, but you can take control of them under Settings > System > Notifications.
