    Sound notifications buttons are grayed out, cant switch off


    I want to switch off system sound notification but system wont allow me see attached screenshot, sorry it is not in English - still have to install EN package, but you'll recognize the field easily - System- Notifications Settings, buttons are grayed out. Adviser told me to reinstall all the updates which I did but it did nothing.

    Sound notifications buttons are grayed out, cant switch off 4c77bc44-b9d6-446a-afb8-61ff2a521a85?upload=true.png


    Funny thing is - I also was unable to switch off "pop-up notification manager", but then I accidentally pressed something hotkey probably, and it switched off. Now I can't switch it on but I don't need that anyway : But the main plague of my PC, sound notifications, still cannot switch off.


    Some info for context:


    -Brand new Win 10 Pro, latest updates, no previous OS, almost no programms/apps basically a clean slate.

    -I am administrator and sole owner of that PC, there is no other users or anything

    -I was able to switch off MS Store notifications, after which other system notififcation buttons became grayed out, but then I somehow managed to switch off pop-ups accidentally pressed some kind of hotkey combinaton while chatting in game most likely.


    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    :)

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.
