In 2018, Microsoft made a change to the Outlook interface where (on some computers) clicking Change in step 2 shows a completely different window, with buttons marked “Reset Mail Settings” and “Next” instead of the server settings.

What if I don’t see the settings window when I click “Change” in the older instructions, but there’s no “Server Settings” option either? Note: To suppress or enable other notifications such. If the “Test Account Settings” window is still open, click Close to continue.Ĭlick Finish to finish the “Change Account” wizard.Ĭlick Close to close the “Account Settings” window. Under Message arrival, select or clear the Display a Desktop Alert check box and then select OK.

If Outlook tells you a test failed, double-check to be sure you’ve entered the settings correctly. If the notifications are not showing in the corner of your screen, click on the Action Center icon (text bubble icon) in the right corner of your Taskbar to see your previous notifications from apps, including Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016.(The icon will be filled with white when there are unread notifications).
