Set the alarm in Windows 10

  4. Immediately below the hour, the approximate duration of the alarm is indicated. It is displayed in the form of a countdown.

  6. Select how often it should be repeated. Select the time interval at which the alarm should be repeated. You can leave the default option to ring only once, or you can have it repeat several days a week.

  9. When you have set the alarm, click the disk icon on the bottom right to save it.
