Situatie

All web browsers use their own built-in notification functionality to show web/push notifications sent by websites. If you are using Windows 10 operating system, you might be aware of its built-in notification center known as Action Center which shows native notifications in form of Toasts to users. Action Center shows all notifications such as system alerts, apps notifications, messages, etc to Windows 10 users.

Now some web browsers have started using Windows 10 built-in Action Center to show websites notifications instead of their own notification functionality. First Google Chrome started showing website notifications in Windows 10 Action Center which can be enabled/disabled using following tutorial:

1. Open Mozilla Firefox and type about:config in the addressbar and press Enter. It’ll show you a warning message, click on “I accept the risk!” button.

2. Now type alerts in Search filter box and it’ll show following preference in the window:

alerts.useSystemBackend

3. If the preference value is set to true, it means Firefox will show websites notifications in Windows 10 Action Center. If the value is set to false, it means Firefox will show notifications in its own notification system.

To modify the preference, double-click on alerts.useSystemBackend preference and change its value. Alternatively, you can right-click on the preference and select Toggle option.

To enable Windows 10 Action Center support i.e. show notifications in Action Center, set the value to true.

To disable Windows 10 Action Center support i.e. show notifications in Firefox classic notification system, set the value to false.

That’s it. The changes apply immediately.

PS: If you are wondering what the other preference alerts.showFavicons shown in above screenshot does in Firefox? It shows website favicon in classic notifications shown in Firefox’s own notification center. It has no effect if you have enabled Windows 10 Action Center support in Firefox.
