Hi Kim,

I realize the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in answering the question.

I would like to inform you that new Windows 10 apps have permission to run in the background so they can update their live tiles, fetch new data, and receive notifications:

Follow the steps below and check:

1. Open Settings or Press Windows + I keys
2. Go to privacy
3. Click on Background apps.
4. locate the desktop app and slide it to off.
5. You can do this for individual apps.

If you want to add app in the lock screen follow the below steps and check if it helps.
Step 1: Turn on notifications in PC Settings.  (This should be on by default.)

1. Open the Settings Charm.
2. Tap or click Change PC settings.

Step 2:  Add the app to lock screen notifications
