In reply to PrinceHowlader’s post on April 8, In this case, we assume that the problem is caused by system file corruption, an absence of system files, or a bug in the operating system. The action center is sometimes accidentally disabled in the system settings by the user.

If this is the case, we can easily enable the action center in the system configurations. Other causes of the Windows 10 notification center not opening include user profile corruption or severe system flaws. As a regular Windows user, you are aware that the vast majority of issues in Windows can be resolved by restarting the operating system. As well, restart your computer to check the status of the Windows 10 action center problem.

If you believe it is still unresolved, read the in-depth solutions below. As previously stated, if the notification or action center in Windows 10 is disabled in the system settings, it will not function.

If the action center window does not open, it means that the action center is disabled and must be enabled. Under the heading Notification Area , click on the System Icon on or off. The toggle switch for Action Center can be found here. If it is turned off, use the toggle switch to enable it.

If the non-responsiveness of the Windows 10 action center is caused by temporary glitches in the system files, restarting Windows Explorer will resolve the issue.

Select Task Manager from the menu that appears when you right-click the taskbar. Right-click on Windows Explorer in the Task Manager window that has just opened. Enter explorer.

Low hard disc or memory space causes problems with the smooth operation of Windows 10, resulting in issues such as Windows 10 action center not opening or going to close. As a result, performing a regular Disk Cleanup process at least once a month is always a good idea. Disk Cleanup removes temporary files and frees up a lot of space on your hard drive. It is possible to do so by following the steps below.

From the Disk Cleanup window, select the type of files you want to delete and press OK. If you want to clean up unwanted system files , follow these steps. Return to the Disk cleanup app and select Clean up system files. Then, restart your computer to complete the cleanup process and check to see if the Windows 10 action center is open. As a result, we must restore this file by renaming the existing file. Otherwise, this file corruption may cause a variety of system problems, including system notification issues.

When we rename the existing file, Windows is forced to create a new UsrClass. One thing to remember is that when we rename the original file, do not delete it. This file is required when something goes wrong during a reboot. In the File Explorer window, go to the View tab and check the box next to hidden items. After renaming the file, restart the computer and check to see if the action center is operational. As previously stated, do not delete the renamed file; we will need it to restore the system settings if something goes wrong.

This procedure will usually solve the problem of the Action Center not opening. The Powershell command can solve the vast majority of Windows 10 issues in a quick and error-free manner. In this case, we can use the Windows registry editor to resolve the problem with the Windows 10 action center not opening.
