My system faced a few problems, and upon inspection it appeared Explorer was dealing with a memory leak, consuming all of my committed memory. Restarting resolved that issue, but then I received a system alert. I was concerned because I had turned off most non-essential notifications, thinking it might be malware or a failing drive. It turned out to be an ad promoting Avowed Premium Edition. How can I turn this off? It’s frustrating when my OS keeps pushing ads for games I don’t care about while I’m working or recording.
