My Retry Button/Trigger won't disable
You should set the initial/default value of the Attempts variable to 1. Adjust your triggers as shown in the screenshot, and keep in mind that the order of the triggers is important in this case.

Hi, I tried but it is not disabling on the third try. It is still allowing them to try more than 3 times.

You forgot to set the default value of Attempts to 1 (as Nedim instructed).
When the default = 0, that gives the user 3 clicks of the Retry button before the Attempts variable = 3. That's 4 attempts of the test.
If you reset the default to 1, the variable will reach 3 after the user clicks the Retry button twice.
You can see this in the attached version. I switched the default value to 1. I also added a temporary text box to the Failure layer that shows the value of the Attempts variable. That's a helpful way to troubleshoot when you're working with variables.
One more thing I did: I edited the Disabled state of the Retry button so it looks different when it is disabled.
I suggest you also add triggers so the "Please try again" audio doesn't play when the Retry button is disabled. Instead, show a message that explains what the user should do after failing 3 attempts.
