If the Microsoft rewards badge is showing constant notifications, adopt these measures to get rid of Microsoft rewards from the Start menu.

Windows 10 shows a little badge (medallion icon) over the Start menu to encourage users to participate in the Microsoft rewards or bing rewards. In the event you don't know, the Microsoft reward program provides you with points for implementing Bing search. Once you earn enough points, you are able to redeem those points in select local or online retailers. For example, you are able to redeem the points to buy Xbox Game Pass membership, Xbox Live Gold, Xbox console, console, etc.

The problem is, Microsoft rewards program is just available in select few regions. Even if the program isn't available in your country or you are no participant, the beginning menu may still show the Microsoft Rewards badge in the Start menu. Occasionally, the rewards badge might even show notifications directly in the Start menu.

If you do not like behavior, stick to the guide below to remove Microsoft rewards badge in the Windows 10 Start menu.
