Website notifications appear in the lower right corner of your screen and are also displayed in the notification center. When notifications are turned on for a website, they will still appear even if Microsoft Edge is closed.
Note: If you are receiving unwanted pop-ups, which are not the same as website notifications, please see Block pop-ups in Microsoft Edge. Pop-ups are advertisements, notices, offers, and alerts that open in your current browser window, in a new window, or in another tab,
How to stop website notifications in Microsoft Edge
You can remove or block notifications for individual websites in the following ways:
Remove or block notifications in Edge settings
In Edge, go to Settings and more in the upper right corner of your browser window.

Select the three dots next to the website from which you want to stop receiving notifications and select either Remove or Block.
Selecting Block stops the website from sending you notifications.
