The modern development of computer technology involves the use of it not only for work or entertainment purposes. Computers can make our life much easier and organize it correctly. One of the possible functions of a home computer can be, among other things, turning it into an alarm clock. Depending on the task, the computer can turn on in the morning and wake you up with the selected melody, turn off on its own in the evening if you forgot to turn it off, etc.

In any case, you must indicate the path to the location of the desired music or soundtrack. In the Enabled box, check the box.
