Why aren't you using the built-in Windows 10 toast notifications?
We decided to not use the built-in Windows 10 toast notifications because:
- MIG blocking notifications should remain permanently on the screen until closed.
- We need to support earlier Windows Operating systems.
- Most importantly, we can add additional functionality to the notification Window such as menus and buttons for directly interacting with MIG settings.
