HELLO EVERYONE! My email notification sound is BACK. I did not do anything. It just happened today when I logged in. I am using web outlook and chrome browser. I honestly did not make any changes with my settings. So, I guess, Microsoft has already fixed this. Please check yours

Hello!

I started experiencing this just today. I have been using outlook web for almost two years now and it just happened today. I have turned on all notif as well as in my Google chrome browser, and my pc. All notif has been turned on.

I have also refreshed the settings by turning it off and on, restarted my pc twice today, nothing works.

I have signed in to another outlook account which I also owned for work, and it is doing just fine. Notif sound is working. But in my main email, the email I am using in posting this, is not working at all. Please help. I need the notif sound so I could action all email requests at work on time.

    I was having the same issue. I turned the "Notifications in Outlook" setting off, then back on. Now it works.

    Yes, that did it, but it must be combined with @Shannon Brozovich suggestion to sign out and sign back in.

    So, turn off "Notifications in Outlook", sign out of Outlook, sign back in, re-enable "Notifications in Outlook" and sounds are back.
