[Bug]: Windows 11 the software starts in "do not disturb" mode

[hovancik]

Hi @johnypowa , different OS calls it differently (Do not disturb, Focus, ...) but Stretchly uses single term "Do not distrub". In general, DND means that when it is on, user should not get notifications. DND can be turned on by user or some apps do it (ie when some browsers go Fullscreen, when you watch movie, when you start Teams meeting etc.). Stretchly tries to respect that, so that when DND is on, breaks are paused. This behavior can be turned off in Preferences (Show breaks even in DND).

There was some system error in some versions of Windows, that for some reason they always returned that system is in DND mode, so workaround for it is to change Stretchlys behavior in Preferences and set it to ignore DND.

Hi, I was never able to figure out what Preference in Windows OS makes this happen but you have 2 options:

• in Stretchly Preferences there is a option to "Show breaks even in Do not disturb mode"
• try some things that worked for people in this thread: #348 (comment). I linked to the latest post, but you can scroll up to see what things worked for different people.

I think this phenomenon has to do with the Windows "do not disturb" mode.
At my job, this feature is accessible here:

Just for your information. I think the other users of Stretchly from the thread you mentioned earlier, came to the same conclusion.

Hi @johnypowa is it still happening? If your PC is in DND mode, then it is expected that Stretchly will show that it is in DND.

There are not new version in releases. Without it users still will report errors to old version.
