    Focus assist


    I mostly play PC games on virtual machines and i don't want any notification sounds while i'm using a VM.

    Can i set up Focus Assist on specific programs or should i need to keep it on at all times?

    :)

    Hello Mike, *Smile

    Focus Assist used to be called "Quiet Hours".

    It's a feature that basically allows you to pause or stop showing notifications when they would be inconvenient.

    Here's some tutorials below to give you more details:

    Hello @Melflormelissa,

    I think there is a way *Smile

    Try the following

    1. Press "Start" and search for "focus" then there should pop something up like on the picture.

    2. Then press "Customize your priority list"
