I'm looking for a way to completely disable the suggested notifications that pop up in Windows 11 using PowerShell. I know you can do it through the Settings > Notifications > Suggested menu, but I'd prefer a script method. Any guidance would be super helpful!

There are tons of ready-made scripts if you just Google your question. You'll find plenty of options that are copy-paste friendly!
Keep in mind, you're not on a Linux forum, so the search results might vary!
You can disable the suggested notifications through the Registry Editor. Just press Win+R, type `regedit`, and hit Enter. Then navigate to this path: `HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionNotificationsSettingsWindows.SystemToast.Suggested`. In the right pane, double-click on the `Enabled` value and set it to 0. This will turn off the suggested notifications. You can also check this key: `HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionNotificationsSettingsWindows.ActionCenter.SmartOptOut`, and set its `Enabled` value to `dword:00000000`. Good luck!
Thanks for this! I actually managed to write a PowerShell script with `New-ItemProperty` to switch the `enabled` value from 1 to 0.
Do you have any specific scripts to recommend? I searched but couldn't find one that only targets the suggested notifications. Most scripts I stumbled upon affect all types of notifications.
