Along the same lines, there has been a few changes to the Action Center as well. For example, in the earlier builds of the OS, the notifications were part of this Action Center. However, with Windows 11, they are now separated (with the notification section itself going some major revamp of sorts). Well, this is just one of the many changes introduced in the Action Center; let’s make you aware of all the useful ones. After this, we will also show you the steps to customize the Windows 11 Action Center.

Likewise, all the Quick Setting toggles are now neatly arranged, with each of them having its own standalone rectangular toggle. Some other noteworthy changes include the ability to directly switch to a different wireless network just via a single click, without the need to interact with the Network Settings page. Apart from that, there are two new sliders for managing the display brightness and the system volume. Not only that, but it also beholds quite a few customization options. And in this guide, we will be having a look at just that. So without further ado, let’s check out the steps to customize the Windows 11 Action Center.
