    I can't find "notification area icons" in "control panel". I can find "notifications" in "settings", but there i no option to turn off action center there. Commented Dec 31, 2022 at 16:20
  • You sure you have windows 11? "Notification area icons" should be in "control panel". If mby you have windows 10, then go to "settings" > "system" > "Notifications and actions" > "turn system icons on or off" where action center switch should be. If you can't find it, try the registry twerk. Hope it helps :) Commented Jan 4, 2023 at 1:43

    What version of Windows 11 do you have? I have recently updated to 22H2 so maybe that's why I have it? (Check under Settings>System>About). I also have Windows 11 Enterprise, could be that, but I don't know why would two Windows 11 have different control panel. Maybe yours is just hidden. Try to copy this path in Windows RUN it should take you to Control Panel>Notifications and actions and then click "turn system icons on or off". explorer shell:::{05d7b0f4-2121-4eff-bf6b-ed3f69b894d9} Commented Jan 6, 2023 at 5:13
