Hi Jeff & Glenn,
Those steps are for Windows 7.
Below are steps for Windows 10 to keep the notification on the screen longer,
but the keystroke to access a notification if it pops-up is, Windows key, Shift
+ V.
From: Bill White 1. Open Control Panel. 2. Navigate to Ease of Access, and press ENTER. 3. Navigate to the "Make it easier to focus on Tasks link and press ENTER. 4. TAB about ten times to the "How long should Windows Notification Dialog Boxes Stay Open" dialog. 5. Arrow up and down in the combo box to find your desired length. 6. TAB to the OK button, and press ENTER. 7. Now Windows Notifications will stay open longer. Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers! I believe that everything happens for a reason. Usually, the reason is that somebody screwed up. ----- Original Message -----

Center Hi Jeff,
Maybe this will help, I saved one of Mike's
messages, which I think he had saved from someone else.

Here you go:
Hi All, I ran across a tip on how to set the time for how long balloon messages will stay up so you can have time to access them. Here you go; In Windows 7 it's under "Ease of Access". Type Ease of Access in to the search box in the start prompt. In the Ease of Access Center go to, "Make it easier to focus on tasks", and hit enter. Near the end of the options that come up is a combobox with different time settings to adjust the time that those balloons stay on screen. I adjusted mine to 1 minute which gives me enough time to find them and click on them. Hope this helps. Take care. Mike From: Audiobookfan

Center not sure how to take action on a notification. This is probably because I don't have any that need action to be taken at this time. Hopefully, I'll remember what to do when I do get such a notification.
