Configuring Notifications at the Operating System Level

You can configure notifications settings at the operating system level, so any notification settings in the CTERA Drive Connect Preferences are ignored.

Windows: Go to Settings > System > Notifications & Actions and set how you want notifications handled.

Note

If no notifications are checked in the CTERA Drive Connect Preferences, CTERA recommends that notifications are enabled at the operating system level.
