Sorry to hear you're having issues with our desktop app's notifications on your computer jeedee23.
Can you provide some additional information about your current setup such as the OS of the device you're using and our desktop app's version as well?
Hint: Our latest stable version is 75.4.141.
If you're missing visual elements on the desktop app's preferences (which is the place you'd need to go to change your preferences about notifications), could you forward me a screenshot of how it looks like on your end so I can have a visual too?
Thanks in advance!
