Since updating to Firefox 70.0 my desktop notifications aren't working on Windows 7 PC. I used to get a notification near the Windows taskbar when I received an email or a facebook event. I've checked in Firefox options and they are definitely enabled. I've also checked on the permissions for the individual sites and notifications are definitely set to Allow. I've tried clearing the cache/cookies/data completely. I've also tried disabling notifications and then re-enabling them

One of the most common reasons why iPhone notifications are not working is because Do Not Disturb is turned on. ... To turn off Do Not Disturb, open the Settings app on your iPhone and tap Do Not Disturb. Then, tap on the switch next to Do Not Disturb to turn it off. 1. Reboot Your Phone. ... 2.Review the App's Notification Settings. ... 3.Disable Software Battery Optimizations. ... 4.Check for Proprietary Power Savers. ... 5.Reinstall the App or Wait for Updates. ... 6.Check the Do Not Disturb Mode. ... 7.Is Background Data Enabled? 8.Is Data Saver Turned On? 9.Is the App Allowed to Function in the Background?

I'm not using iPhone! Or any phone!! I'm on Windows 7 PC, as per the original post

Unfortunately it doesn't help as Firefox in general is working fine. It's just the notifications that aren't working.

Hello again David,

As nothing that has been suggested, appears to solve the problem; would you consider posting this question on the official Microsoft support forum ?

You can use this link to post your question (worth a try ... )

Maybe first see if the problem also occurs with another browser .... ?
