    Set an alarm in Alarms, and it doesn't notify me.


    I've been having a problem with Alarms. Every time I set an alarm, it doesn't go off. One time, I set an alarm for 6:00pm and after reboot, it finally when off. Any suggestions?

    Hi Marc,

    To address your concern, we suggest that you synchronize the system clock with an internet time server in Windows 10. To do that, follow these steps:

    • Open the Control Panel, and click on the Date and Time icon.
    • Click/on the Internet Time tab, and click on the Change settings
      button. If prompted by UAC, click on Yes.
    • Check the Synchronize with an Internet time server box, select a time server, and click on
      Update now. If an error occurred, click on Update now again to see if it may successfully synchronize. When the clock is successfully synchronized, click on
      OK.
    • Click on OK.
    • Go to Alarm & Clock app and test the alarm.

    Let us know how it goes after performing the steps.

    Confused about alarm

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand your inconvenience. We are here to assist you.

    I suggest you to refer the section “Can alarm still sound when my PC is off”, from the following Microsoft help article.

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/alarms-app-faq

    Note: The steps for Windows 8/8.1 applies to Windows 10

    If the InstantGo application is in compatible with your computer, I suggest you to install it in compatibility mode and check if it helps.

    Method 1:

    Follow the steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode:

    • Download the drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
    • Right-click on the installer and click on "Properties".
    • Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode for” and select previous Operating System from the drop down.
    • Click on ‘Apply’ and click ‘OK’ and run the file to install it.

    Hope it helps. Do let us know if the issue is resolved. For any further information, feel free to contact us.

    Thank you.
