    Remove Focus Sessions from Clock App


    Even with all focus assist settings and automatic rules turned off, every time I pull up the clock app to set a timer it starts on the Focus Sessions tool.Is there a way to completely turn off this feature, or do I just need to get a clock app from a 3rd party?

    :)

    Win 11 Clock app opens in Focus Sessions

    Hi @Greg Carmack. Let me try to clarify. I don't use Focus Sessions. I've got them turned off in the Clock App settings, but every time i want to use Alarms or Timer, I click on the Clock App and when it opens, it always opens in Focus Session. Then I always have to select my desired functionality, either Alarms or Timer. I would prefer to have the Clock app open in either Timer or Alarms. Clear?

    Hi. How can I cause the clock app to open in Alarms or Timer instead of Focus Sessions?

    Win 11 Clock app opens in Focus Sessions

    Hi again -

    It looks ilke the Windows 11 Clock has been integrated with Focus Sessions now by default. This is explained here:

    https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2021/...

    If you want to express your opinion on this to Microsoft use the Feedback Hub app in Start Menu where developers are tasked to process consumer feedback. They will not even see it here. This is a tech forums staffed mostly by volunteers trying to help others with your problems.



    If you want to express your opinion on this and you're a Windows Insider you can do so in the Windows 11 Insider forums here:

    https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-...

    Developers will not even see it here as this is a forums where mostly volunteers try to help you with Windows problems, and we have no more influence than you do.
