Facebook notifications on Windows 10

I keep receiving notifications whenever I get a message on Facebook Messenger. It happens all the time, even when my internet browser is closed (I use Google Chrome). It's not the general notifications, only the direct messages. I can't turn them off.

I've tried turning notifications off on Facebook, but they weren't turned on to begin with. I've been into the settings on my PC and there's nothing there. I tried using this blog: https://www.howtogeek.com/219703/how-to-disable-notification-sounds-in-windows-10/ but my settings doesn't have an option to turn off all notifications and sounds. I turned off everything I could, and I still get that little ding play.

It's incredibly frustrating, especially when I'm recording something or trying to focus on an assignment, considering I'm in multiple chat groups.

I've also tried turning off the sound on the Messenger website, but that didn't work either.
Does this happens to when you log off of facebook and then clear the history details in google chrome.

I've not tried that. I will now.

I just found an evil little program that installed itself. And deleted it. And the sound is gone!
