Notifications unable to mute
4.5
An app continues to make sounds or show banners even after you have muted it.
Symptoms
- Mute toggle ignored
- Sounds play in "Silent" mode
- Persistent banners
Possible Causes
- App-specific settings override
- System bug
- Priority notification status
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Check Internal App Settings
Many apps (like WhatsApp or Telegram) have their own mute settings that override the OS.
2
Disable "Allow Priority"
Ensure the app isn't marked as "Priority" in Focus Assist settings.
3
Use Volume Mixer
Manually mute the specific app in the Windows Volume Mixer.
When to See a Technician
Some "emergency" or "security" apps are designed to bypass system mutes; check the app's permissions.
