How to turn off annoying comment notifications in Windows 11

If you’ve recently upgraded or fresh-installed Windows 11, you’ll notice that from time to time a notification pops up in the bottom-right corner of your screen asking you to provide feedback on the operating system. These notifications can be quite annoying and, above all, intrusive (if you’re playing full screen they can even kick you out of the game), so in this article we’re going to tell you what to do to disable them.

The notification center in Windows 11 can be a useful and powerful tool to know what is happening in your PC’s operating system, but Microsoft has configured it in this latest version in a rather intrusive way that, as we have already mentioned , it can even become very annoying. Thus, disabling these comment notifications in Windows 11 can help you have greater peace of mind when using your PC, without panels that bother you and interrupt you with something that, moreover, most likely does not even interest you.

This is how comments are disabled in Windows 11

Luckily, turning off these notifications in Windows 11 is pretty easy. To do this, click the Start button and select Settings (the gear icon), or alternatively right-click Start and select Settings. Now, in the menu on the left, click on “Privacy and security”, and then, under the “Windows permissions” section, look for “Feedback and diagnostics”.

The next thing you should do in the window that appears next is to find, in the lower area, the Comments section, and just below you will see “Comment frequency”, which is Automatically selected by default. There, display the menu and simply select “Never”. With this you will have completely disabled the notifications that ask you to comment on Windows 11.

In this same window you can choose other privacy options in Windows 11; we personally recommend turning it all off, as you can see in the screenshot above.

What if they reappear?

It is possible that after installing one of the many automatic updates of Windows 11, suddenly these annoying notifications appear again for you to make comments about the operating system, especially after large updates such as those that arrive semi-annually. If so, you can repeat the process that we have explained in the previous section, but you can also use a little trick, a little more laborious but equally simple, to permanently deactivate them .

To do this, we are going to use the powerful Windows Registry Editor tool, but as always when we are going to use it, we feel obliged to warn you that it is quite dangerous if you touch where you shouldn’t, so we recommend you make a backup the registry first (to do this, once you access the Registry Editor, click File -> Export to save it to a file).

To open the Registry Editor, simply right-click on the Start button and select “Run”. In the window that appears, type regedit and click OK.

Regedit

In the window that opens, you can either navigate through the menu on the left, or write or paste the following in the bar indicated in the screenshot above:

ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindowsDataCollection

Once there, on the right side, click on an empty space with the right mouse button and select New -> DWORD Value (32-bit) to create a new record, which by default will be called “New Value #1” but input will allow you to rename it. You should name it DoNotShowFeedbackNotifications and then double click on it to edit it. In the “Value information” field, change the default 0 to 1 and click OK.

Regedit

Ready, once this is done you can close the Windows Registry Editor and restart the PC for the changes to take effect. After that, Windows should never remove the notification for you to give your comments.
