Windows 10: Microsoft Clock Focus Timer turning itself off after a few minutes.

Been having an issue in the Clock app with the Focus Timer shutting itself off. I’ll set the timer, and about 5 minutes later it will revert back to the timer set screen. Normal timers work fine—it’s only the Focus timer. I’ve tried it on both my PC specs below and my Surface Pro 6. Same issue both times. I normally set the timer for 30 minutes, but this happens regardless of the time entered.I’m a newbie to forum posting, so I’m not really sure if all the information below is relevant. I can add more if it’s unclear.Thanks!System Info:OS Name Microsoft Windows 11 HomeVersion 10.0.22621 Buil

Thank you for your reply, Andree. Here are my answers:

• I had a malware problem 6 weeks ago, but the clock timer wasn’t affected.
• I looked at some U-Tube videos on desktop clocks but found no solutions.
• It is the first time I’ve encountered the problem.
