Key Takeaways
- Using the in-app settings on Microsoft Outlook, you can ensure that you receive notifications for every new mail.
- Notifications will not work if the general Windows 11 notification settings is turned off.
Method 1: Enable Email Notifications in Outlook
If you notice that taskbar notifications from your Outlook app are not popping up, check your Outlook Settings first. By default, your Outlook mail notification setting must display a desktop alert when you get an email. With that option checked, you can receive taskbar notifications from Outlook.
Here’s how to update your Outlook settings:
Step 1: Launch the Outlook app.
Step 2: On the Outlook ribbon, click on the File tab.
Step 3: On the sidebar menu, click Options.
Step 4: On the Outlook Options window, click the Mail option from the left sidebar and scroll down the Mail settings to the Message arrival group on the right.
Step 5: Tick the following options to ensure you get sound and visual notifications on your Windows 11 taskbar when you receive a new email:
- Play a sound
- Show an envelope icon in the taskbar
- Display a Desktop Alert
Step 6: Click OK at the bottom of the Outlook Options window to save your changes.
Step 7: Close the Outlook Options window, and your changes should take effect.
Method 2: Enable Desktop Notifications for Outlook
While creating a reminder on Outlook means you do not miss emails, you may also enable desktop notifications for Outlook. This solution will work when you use Outlook on the web. You should simply follow the steps below.
Step 1: Open the Outlook web service.
Step 2: Click the Settings icon at the top right corner.
Step 3: Click General > click Notifications > on the right pane, toggle on Send me desktop notifications, check the box For messages, and select Messages in inbox.
Method 3: Update the Notifications & Actions Settings
The notification center on your Windows 11 PC is where you will find app notifications and quick actions for your frequently used apps and settings. You can update the Settings app configuration for messages in the Notification & Action Center.
Step 1: Press Windows + I to open the Settings app, click System on the left pane, and click on Notifications on the right.
Step 2: Toggle on the Notifications switch.
Step 3: Scroll down and turn on the toggle for Outlook.
