# Notification badge (red dot) in the taskbar

Manage the notification badge red dot in the Remote Desktop Manager taskbar icon, view alerts, and disable it from the user interface settings.

When you have one or more notifications in your current Remote Desktop Manager context, a red dot icon appears over the Remote Desktop Manager logo in the taskbar. You can use the bell button in the bottom-right corner of your Remote Desktop Manager application to access the notification menu and remove them.

If you wish to disable the notification badge completely, go to ***File – User interface – Taskbar/Trayicon*** in Remote Desktop Manager and disable ***Show notification badge in taskbar***.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/knowledge-base/knowledge-base-articles/notification-badge-red-dot-in-the-taskbar.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
