System sound

**Bensit** · April 22, 2005

Hello,

Which registry setting is used to turn off all Windows system sounds? Been searching the forum but cannot find the one to turn everything off.

Regards,

Wim

I think you mean this tweak:

;turn off system beeps
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Sound]
"beep"="no"

**Mike_Wilson** · April 22, 2005

I dont think he means system beeps, I think he means more in the meaning of "sound schemes" to disable sounds such as "Empty Recycle Bin" etc?

If this is the case then Windows does have a scheme for No Sounds so there should be a tweak that will load the "No Sounds" scheme.

**Bensit** · April 22, 2005

Exactly, I don't really care 'bout the system beeps, I want to change the default 'Windows sound scheme' to 'no sounds'. This must prevent a whole classroom with 'TARAAAAH' when the students login.

Regards,

Wim

Set your sounds as you want it to be on your current running windows, then copy the registry values to a .reg file and apply at T-12 for it to apply to all users.

Here is an example of how to disable the shutdown sound.

Thanks for the registry file post, but it did not work for me. What might be the problem? Thanks

This setting never worked for me when applied to this key, as if it's locked or in use. Try this instead. If imported at T-12, it still sets your sound scheme to 'No Sounds', as the default user.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes]@=".None"
The rest of the list is useful for detailed customization, but redundant if this tweak is used to turn off all sound effects.

**belcebuu** · March 15, 2006

Lazy the problem is that if you dont put all the appevents the changes arent inmediatly, i put hkey_users if people want no sounds if they create new users, if you only put

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\AppEvents\Schemes]
@=".None"

the sounds still sound, dont know if you restart the changes made effect but with the hole changes the sounds stop playing inmediatly
