    Wrong Characters from Slack Notifications


    Hello,


    I've recently been experiencing problems with notifications from the application Slack. For some characters, it replaces it with some sort of HTML special entities. Does anyone know a specific fix for this issue? Below is an example of what I'm experiencing.

    (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.

    Wrong Characters from Slack Notifications

    Show notifications in action center setting not working for Slack

    Nope, there is no way of eating your cake and keeping it too: it's an all or nothing setting in Windows 10.

    What I did was turning it off entirely on Windows 10:

    • I still see the red or blue ball on the slack icon itself and can hear the slack notification sound
    • My phone still pings me and shows the message if I don't read it within a minute or so.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
