Hi，

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

Windows toast notifications use Ctrl+Enter to perform the quick reply and use Enter to add a new line.
Currently, uwp does not provide a way to change it.

Update:
ToastButton.TextBoxId can get or set the ID of an existing ToastTextBox in order to have this button display to the right of the input, achieving a quick reply scenario.

So, this quick reply function depends on you using ToastButton.TextBoxId to make the button behave as a quick reply button. You could set the same Id for the textbox and the button.

For example(ToastButton.TextBoxId and ToastTextBox.Id in the code below are the same, both are "tbReply"):

  ToastActionsCustom actions = new ToastActionsCustom()  
            {  
                Inputs =  
                {  
                    new ToastTextBox("tbReply")  
                    {  
                        PlaceholderContent = "Type a response"  
                    }  
                },  
  
                Buttons =  
               {  
                    new ToastButton("Reply", new QueryString()  
                    {  
                        { "action", "reply" },  
                        { "conversationId", conversationId.ToString() }  
  
                    }.ToString())  
                    {  
                        ActivationType = ToastActivationType.Background,  
                        ImageUri = "Assets/Reply.png",  
                        // Reference the text box's ID in order to quick reply  
                       TextBoxId = "tbReply"  
                    },  

              ……  
           }  
        };
