    How to disable Points Reward notification?


    Hello!
    I am still getting notifications for points being rewarded on the PC Xbox overlay, even when I have the setting disabled. This is frustrating as I typically get 2-3 within the course of the first hour of playing the game. I saw This post which seems to be the exact problem I am having, except it seems that the PC Xbox software has since been updated to have a disable box for that specific notification. Except it doesn't seem to actually do anything.
    I am wondering if this is a bug and, in fact, not intended behavior. If so, I thought this might help bring attention to the issue.
    Thank you in advance!

    How to disable MS Rewards notifications on PC Xbox app (option in settings does not work)

    I have turned off the option "Notify me when I earn Rewards points" in the Notifications section of the Settings for the XBox Overlay. I still get constant "We have free stuff" and "See how many points you earned" notifications in my Windows 10 notifications popup. An extensive internet search indicates that this problem is ongoing and widespread, with no good resolution from Microsoft.

    MICROSOFT: Please tell me how to disable these notifications, they are intrusive and annoying.

    How to disable points notification in xbox game bar

    So, I came to this with the same question, and I found an option that says "Notify me when I earn Reward points". I expect that would be a better choice than “Notify me when I unlock achievements”. I'm going to try that out and see if it works for me.

    “Windows + G” to be able to open the Xbox Game Bar and then click on the “Gear” icon in the top menu.
    in the new open window then access the “Notifications” tab on the left menu.
    Once this is done, uncheck the option "Notify me when I earn Reward points" and click “X” to close the window.

    Hopefully this will disable the annoying (and specific) Reward point notifications without disabling notifications for achievements.

    It is annoying and I don't care about your reward points!!! Stop asking me to redeem them! When are you going to add basic option to FULLY disable them (without disabling chat notification from friends) that actually WORKS!?

    I've been keeping an eye out but I've not found any other solutions at the moment, I've used the feedback hub to report the bug but I don't know if that will have any effect or not. Reading around there seems to be a lot of people affected by this and I do find it maddening so I was hoping there would be a fix long ago but clearly not.

    Hi

    Hello Caballero90,

    We have disabled the yellow light notification, and removed it from user's pages. To be clear, this notification was not an alert indicating an issue with Rewarding. We apologies for the confusion this notice may have caused.
