Disabling Windows Quiet Hours

Disabling Windows Quiet Hours

Anonymous

Hi guys, I wanted to ask a question regarding a setting in Microsoft Teams. My Teams desktop app always displays that Windows Quiet Hours is enabled. With this setting enabled, I can't get any notifications regarding any messages or calls. I tried to look into my Teams settings but there is nothing affiliated with Windows Quiet Hours. I want to disable this setting but I can't get any clue on how to disable it. Also, I use Teams on Windows 8.1.

Exact statement displayed by Teams on the top of the app:

"Windows Quiet Hours is enabled, so you won't get notifications for calls and messages in Teams."

Does anyone know how to disable it? Any assistance on this at the earliest is highly appreciated.
