Key notes

Slack is, in the opinion of many professionals, the best team collaboration service at the moment. The overall usability is followed by the intuitive design and worthy premium features for the ones who need more.

The only major dealbreaker might be the fact it’s a cloud-based service, so it stores all user data on Slack’s servers.

Of course, there are also minor issues and one we’ll try and resolve today are Slack pop-up notifications which are not working for some users.

Amazing connection speed with 35% off and 3 months free for the 1-year plan.

Best security protocols with 83% off and 2 months free for a 2-year plan.

How do I get Slack pop-up notifications working on Windows?

How do I get Slack pop-up notifications working on Windows?

1. Read all messages and make sure desktop notifications are enabled

Now check if your Slack notifications are working properly.

2. Clear application cache

Slack client for Desktop

Slack UWP from Microsoft Store

After that, notifications should come through without any issues. On the other hand, if you’re still having problems with Slack notifications not working, feel free to continue to next troubleshooting step.

3. Check system settings

After enabling notifications, check if the Slack notifications are working properly.

4. Reinstall Slack

Finally, if none of the previous steps worked for you, consider reinstalling Slack for Desktop (better choice than UWP in our opinion) and stick with it.

With that said, we can conclude this article. In case you have any alternative solutions or additional questions we forgot to answer, feel free to tell us in the comments section.
