Windows 10: Alarms & Clock annoyance

I have reminder alarms set for 10:30 AM and PM every day. That part works as it should. But when I click on the alarm notification symbol and am given a choice to dismiss, clicking on that stops the sound but also brings up the alarm screen. Is there any way to keep that screen from opening? Anybody would think clicking on "Dismiss" would close everything related to that particular alarm until time for it to do its job again.

Error in Alarm&Clock

Hi,

After checking the screenshot provided and since you are encountering this kind of issue in your alarm clock. Please answer the question:

• Are you using a Windows app alarm clock or a third party alarm clock?

We'll look forward to your response.

 

Start Alarms and Clocks in Clocks tab

How can I start the Alarms and Clocks applet with the Clocks tab open?

• I need more than the three world clocks supported by the task bar hover.
• The Alarms and Clocks applet supports many clocks, and looks nice.
• The applet opens on the Alarms tab (which is useless to me).
• I have to click on the Clocks tab. Not a big task, obviously, but annoying when all I want is to quickly check the time in another country.

I'd like to be able to set my Quick Launch Alarms and Clocks icon to automatically open on the Clocks tab. That way, the clocks would flash up, I could check the time, and quickly move on.

Interestingly, sometimes, the applet does open to Clocks (presumably, to the last used view), but not always.
