Can I enable Balloon Notifications in Windows 10 without administrator rights?

I am on Windows 10 Education 22H2, so I don't have admin rights. Because of that, I can't use the Registry Editor or the Group Policy Editor. I need those to get balloon notifications instead of toast notifications. Is there any way to get balloon notifications without admin rights?

    Hello   Colton Stone，

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    Unfortunately, enabling balloon notifications in Windows 10 requires administrative privileges, as it involves modifying system settings through the Registry Editor or the Group Policy Editor. Without admin rights, you won't be able to make the necessary changes to enable balloon notifications.

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    If you have any question or concern, please feel free to let us know.

    Best Regards,

    Haijian Shan
