Some of you may have issues with the balloon notifications. User cabidop reported the following problem on Github: There is an option available inside the Windows privacy settings that permits applications to operate in the background. You may activate this option to display notifications of any sort in Windows 10. After running it, a system tray icon appears but no desktop notification is displayed. This same code on Ubuntu makes the notification appear as expected, so I guess I’m missing some dependency.  Users also found our guide on some easy ways to create email notifications for Event viewer useful.
