    Get rid of action center window


    I've got rid of all the display messages from the action centre options and still the window is in the bottom right corner of my screen all the time saying that i can use it to view recent messages about my computers status etc. How do i get rid of it completely?

    Go to taskbar properties, then down to "Notification area" click on "Customize. . ." on the next window go to "Action Center" and click on "Hide Icon and Notifications". Now click "Ok", the "Apply" and your done.

    System Icons - Enable or Disable

    Start
    Search or Run
    gpedit.msc
    User Configuration
    Start Menu and Taskbar
    Remove the Action Center icon
    Enabled

    Brute force works just fine for this one.

    Get the "Take Ownership" .reg file from here - Take Ownership Shortcut
    right click and take ownership of c:\windows\system32\ActionCenter.DLL and c:\windows\system32\ActionCenterCPL.DLL

    rename those files .bak and reboot.
