I get my notifications on my Action Center on Windows 10.
When I click on them to get to their website to actually read the notification, it just disappears and it won't take me to the website.

How do I fix this?

  • I am having this same issue but with ANY notification from the Action Centre. Clicking on them simply closes it and nothing happens. So annoying. They only work if I open the Action Centre and click on them from there. Did you ever find a solution to this?

  • @RajParmar What version of Windows are you running and did you try @drmoishe-pippik's answer below? If your Windows version isn't >=v1903, updating will likely solve the issue, otherwise try the following commnds in the order listed: dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup > dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth > reboot > sfc /scannow > reboot.

In Windows 10, there are a number of different dialogs that control notifications. Notifications & actions dlg

  • In Settings | Notifications & actions, you may need to turn on Get notifications from apps and other senders, as well as the switch for a specific sender.

Background apps

  • In Settings | Privacy | Background apps, you may need to turn on Let apps run in the background, and select specific apps to display its notifications. (This requirement may be new to Windows 10 v. 1809; I noticed after installation that Notifications was broken until background apps were enabled.)

And, as T. Lehrer said of the elements, "There may be many other [dialogs] but they haven't been discahvahd."

    This answer doesn’t seems to solve the OP’s problem. It doesn’t make sense, apps running in background can have nothing related to notifications not opening.

    @Valay_17, Notifications is an app. It needs to run in the background. It may not make sense to you, but try turning that off and see what happens.
