How to turn off Windows pop-ups during presentations

Have you ever given a slide presentation and had Windows pop-up messages notify you of emails or system events? You can temporarily turn these notifications off using Windows Presentations Settings.

1. Click: Start > Run
2. Type: presentationsettings exe
3. Click: presentationsettings.exe
4. Select: I am currently giving a presentation
5. Click: OK

You will see an icon in the Windows Notification Area (near the clock) to remind you to turn it off.
