Confused about alarm

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand your inconvenience. We are here to assist you.

I suggest you to refer the section “Can alarm still sound when my PC is off”, from the following Microsoft help article.

How to use alarms and timers in the Clock app in Windows - Microsoft Support

Note: The steps for Windows 8/8.1 applies to Windows 10

If the InstantGo application is in compatible with your computer, I suggest you to install it in compatibility mode and check if it helps.

Method 1:

Follow the steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode:

• Download the drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
• Right-click on the installer and click on "Properties".
• Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode for” and select previous Operating System from the drop down.
• Click on ‘Apply’ and click ‘OK’ and run the file to install it.

Hope it helps. Do let us know if the issue is resolved. For any further information, feel free to contact us.
