Using the Action Center?

Explaining the Windows 7 Action Center
 
Windows 7 Action Center 
 
Using the Action Center
Action Center consolidates and gives you control of all Windows 7 message alerts. It allows you to configure what messages you do and do not see from Windows maintenance and security, including Windows Defender and User Account Control.
When Windows 7 requires your attention, the Action Center icon appears on the taskbar. If you click the icon, you will see the alerts and suggested actions for any issues listed.
Within the Action Center:
  • Red items are labeled Important - indicate issues that should be addressed as soon as possible (like outdated anti-virus program).

  • Yellow items are suggested tasks - like recommended maintenance tasks.
To view details about either the Security or Maintenance section, click the heading or the arrow to expand or collapse the section. If you don’t want to see certain types of messages, you can choose to hide them from view. If Windows pop-up balloon messages bother you, you can customize those settings as well in the Action Center.
