Users who would simply like a window with an easily visible clock can type timedate.cpl in the Run dialog box ( ⊞ Win+ R). When the map is minimized horizontally, the times are shown in a vertical list below the map instead of on it.

It is also possible to compare what nonlocal times will be at a specified local time. When other times are displayed, the World Clock feature calculates how far ahead or behind the other times are from the user's local time. Users can search for additional locations to show on the map. The world clock list detects the user's location and shows the local time on the user's location on a world map.

Prior to the Windows 10 Creators Update, Alarms & Clock (as it was called at the time) was the only app that could make an alarm notification appear during quiet hours, but third-party alarms running on Windows 10 version 1704 or later also ring during quiet hours by default. In order for an alarm to ring on a PC that is off, InstantGo must be included in the device. Due to hardware limitations, alarms cannot always appear on certain devices that are powered off.

The current list of sounds in the order listed is Chimes, Xylophone, Chords, Tap, Jingle, Transition, Descending, Bounce, Echo, and Ascending.Īlarms are triggered by a special type of toast notification for alarms. It is possible to change the time, name, recurrence by day of the week, sound, and snooze time. It is possible to delete a selection of alarms simultaneously by clicking on the list button and using the control key with or without the shift key to select alarms.Īlarms can be created by clicking the plus button and edited by clicking or tapping on them. The alarms are listed vertically by the time of day and can be activated or deactivated with an ovular on/off switch.
