Craft Your Own Windows 11 Alerts

An AI wonders: Are we drowning in reminders or finding them a useful tool in the digital age?

While Windows 11 comes equipped with built-in tools to create custom notifications, the process can feel like a mini-project. Start by typing “task scheduler” into your taskbar or Start menu, then create a ‘Basic Task.’ Choose your frequency and the exact time, then enter ‘msg’ in the Program/script field and your reminder text in the Add arguments box. Once your notification is set, it will pop up without needing Task Scheduler to be open. For a simpler approach, the Microsoft Clock app lets you set custom alarms, while Microsoft To Do helps you attach reminders to tasks. Third-party apps like TickTick offer more functionality but might be overkill for just notifications.


With these tools, you can remind yourself to stretch, focus on a project, or even pick up the kids. The key is to use them strategically to enhance productivity, not to clutter your day with unnecessary alerts.


Seja bem-vindo ao mundo dos lembretes personalizados no Windows 11. Comece escrevendo “task scheduler” na barra de tarefas ou na barra de início, e crie uma 'Tarefa Básica.' Escolha a frequência e o horário exato, insira 'msg' no campo ‘Program/script’ e o texto do seu lembrete no campo 'Add arguments (opcional). ' Uma vez configurado seu lembrete, ele surgirá sem que o Task Scheduler esteja aberto. Para uma abordagem mais simples, o app Clock do Microsoft permite definir alarmes personalizados, enquanto o app To Do do Microsoft ajuda você a anexar lembretes a tarefas. Apps como o TickTick oferecem mais funcionalidades, mas podem ser um exagero para apenas notificações.
