    Alarm and Timer does not sound.


    Focus assistant is turned off. All other media can be played with sound. I have seen many posts about the same problem but from 5-6 years ago and they did not work, so I'm wondering if I can get a tip for Windows 10 now.

    Thanks in advance.

    Alarm clock / timer

    Sometimes the alarm on my timer/alarm clock sounds--and sometimes it doesn't. Anyone know why?

    How to disable the alarm sound in the default Windows 10 timer app

    This question is about the Windows 10 default Alarm & Clock app. I'm currently trying to set up a timer so that (for example) after 10 minutes, I get a notification saying something like "time's up".

    Unfortunately, while I get a notification, the app accompanies the notification with an obnoxious beeping alarm sound. In addition, the volume of the music I am playing through Firefox decreases when this alarm plays, and increases afterwards. I would like to turn off the sound. Here's what I've tried:

    1. I've tried turning off the sound for that specific app (I'm playing music, so I can't turn the sound off completely), using the app titled "volume mixer". Unfortunately, there is no dedicated volume control for the alarm app. I've tried turning down the "system sounds" volume control, and this has no effect.
    2. I've tried changing the settings of the app, but as far as I can tell the app has no settings page, and no way to turn off the volume for the timer. (There is a way to turn off the sound for the alarm clock).

    If there is no specific "Alarm & Clock" fix, I would be open to using a different app, as long as it wouldn't require me to install something like "Java Run-time Environment", which I don't want to do (security risks).

    How to disable the alarm sound in the default Windows 10 timer app

    I have taken a look at the "Alarm & Clock" app in Windows 10,
    and my opinion of its quality is basically unprintable.

    There exist an enormous number of available free alarm applications,
    one of whom will surely meet your needs.

    See for example these articles for lists of such products and their merits :
