Can you add members to sharepoint group without sending an email?

I have a sharepoint site with different permissions groups. When creating a new group and adding people,I will uncheck the box to send an email notification but it will send an email to everyone anyway. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

 

Ideally I would like to be able to add people or reconfigure what groups they are a part of without flooding everyone's inbox.

    Hi KFlood
    To add members to a SharePoint group without sending email notifications, follow these steps:
    1- Log in to the SharePoint site and access the group settings.
    2- Manage the group members.
    3- Disable email notifications.
    4- Save the changes.
    5- Test the process to ensure no email notifications are sent.

    By following these steps, you can add or modify SharePoint group members without flooding everyone's inbox.
