Answer 1

Have you tried to make the application Toast Capable? check this thread: Toast notification isn't working?

Answer 2

You can change directly your Package.appxmanifest from code page :

add ToastCapable to the VisualElements Tag

 <VisualElements  ToastCapable="true">

Some times the screen of the Package.appxmanifest dosen't have the option to change it:

Answer 3

You should set toast capable to yes in app package.

Answer 4

Be sure that you checked the box in the App's config file to enable Notifications.

Answer 5

An interesting issue I ran into is I was using toast with images. I had the images in a dependent assembly with copy to output directory. Scheduling toast just failed silently. Ondemand toast failed with an HRESULT of E_FAIL (no other information). When I finally copied the images into the main project (with copy to output directory) then they started working.

Answer 6

Need set small icon for notifications!!!
