Hi, I’m finally deciding to make a post, after just dealing with the lack of notification functionality within the battle.net desktop program (I was hoping that the problem would eventually be fixed)
I haven’t been getting any pop-up notifications from bnet social convos whatsoever, additionally - the alert that used to exist a year or more ago, whenever someone whispers in-game or a queue pops in-game or even when being put into combat while tabbed out (another window having focus, thus making the game register as “background” - does not work & hasn’t been working for longer than I can even remember at this point. It used to make the taskbar raise up from being hidden & made the program icon on the taskbar flash, as a way to alert the user… Now though, nothing happens at all… (including bnet chat notifications whether there’s game is currently running or even when there is not.)
The reason i’m finally making a post pertaining to this is, today, while scouring google search results for any possible solutions to this problem (found many people with the same issue, but none that had found any fix) – i decided to dig thru windows settings in various places… which lead me to notice, within the notifications section of windows, there’s an entry for battle.net, i saw that this entry was toggled OFF and the toggle to enable it was greyed out, however - when clicking the entry for battle.net for more detailed notification settings for the program, i was able to toggle the notifications on from there…
I was hopeful that I had just found a fix to this drawn out issue, but after i went back to my notification settings, i discovered that no matter how many times I try to enable the notifications for battle.net within windows, it toggles itself back off immediately afterwards. (this is THE one and ONLY program that has this issue on my PC, as well as the only one I’ve ever encountered with this issue…)

(remove the spaces from the above link, of course)
above is an imgur link with a short video showing what this looks like.
(I’ve also confirmed that there are no conflicts from within the battle.net app’s notification settings menu)
any assistance with this would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you !
