The icon has been relocated to the right of the taskbar clock, and it now displays a badge indicating the number of new notifications or alerts. The main interface remains hidden until called upon, but the Action Center taskbar icon is now much more prominent. With the Windows 10 Anniversary Update in August 2016, however, Action Center is now a bit more noticeable. By default, the Action Center interface remains hidden until the user clicks the Action Center taskbar icon or, for touch screen devices, swipes in from the right side of the display. First shipped with the original version of Windows 10, Action Center is a Windows 10 feature which provides users with quick access to common system settings and app notifications.
