In most cases of working at a computer, the sound when starting the operating system sooner or later begins to get boring. The best solution will exclude the playback of this sound, if only because this is another one of the processes that starts along with Windows and a number of some startup programs...

How to turn off sound when Windows starts?

So, let's take Windows 7 as an example. In order to turn off the greeting sound, let's do several steps:

  1. If you have Windows 7 older than the “Home” or “Home” version, then you can get to the sound settings through the “Personalization” panel. To do this, right-click on an empty space on the desktop and select “Personalization”, if there is one in context menu no, it means your system is a lower version and corresponds to Windows 7 Home or Starter. In this case, you can get to the sound settings through the “Control Panel”, go to the following path: Start -> Control Panel -> Sound.
  2. If you have opened the “Personalization” panel, then at the bottom of the window find the “Sounds” item and the corresponding icon.


    If you went to adjust the sound through the Control Panel, then in the window that opens, go to the “Sounds” tab.

It's nice to deal with self-oriented, loved one (user-oriented), operating system Windows. It not only does everything the user needs, but also accompanies it with various sound effects - short and figurative melodies that reflect the essence of what is happening.

Some people like it, some don't. Therefore the sounds Windows greetings can be customized to your own preferences.

Windows greeting sounds indicate the sound of various events:

  • login to Windows
  • exit Windows
  • completion of printing,
  • shutting down Windows
  • notification of receipt of mail, etc.

In Windows, these sounds can be changed - let's look at how to do this first for Windows 7, and then for Windows XP.

Welcome sounds in Windows 7

You can choose the Windows 7 greeting sound by selecting Hardware and Sound in Control Panel, then Sound (Figure 1 below):

Rice. 1 We are looking for a window where you can configure system sounds Windows 7

Or the second option is how you can find the “Sound” window: in the Control Panel, select “Design and Personalization” - “Personalization”, at the bottom “Sounds”.

In the “Sound” window, go to the “Sounds” tab (Fig. 2 below):

Rice. 2 Welcome sounds in Windows 7

If in the window " Sound scheme"(number 1 in Fig. 2) select “No sound”, and then click on the “Apply” button, then the entire sound setup is completed. The reason for this is that from now on all Windows work on your computer will take place in complete silence. I don’t know who it is, but I like this particular option - there are no Windows welcome sounds.

If you need sounds, then in the “Sound” window select any “Sound Scheme” except “No Sound”, for example, in the screenshot (number 1 in Fig. 2) the “default” sound scheme is selected. In the “Program events” list (number 2 in Fig. 2), select the desired event, for example, “Login to Windows”.

We select any sound from among those proposed (number 3 in Fig. 2). If desired, click the “Check” button, after which you can hear the selected soundtrack. After the selection is made, all that remains is to click on “Apply”.

Pay attention to the checkbox next to “Play Windows startup ringtone” (number 5 in Fig. 2). If you uncheck this box, this melody will not be played when Windows starts.

From the text description of how to change the Windows 7 greeting sounds, let's move on to the video format:

Welcome sounds in Windows XP

Windows greeting sounds are configured in the same way. To do this, go to Start – Settings – Control Panel – Sounds and Audio Devices – Sounds tab:

Rice. 3 Sound greeting in Windows XP

  1. Select a sound scheme, for example, “ Standard Windows"(number 1 in Fig. 3).
  2. We find the desired “Program event”, for example, “ Starting Windows"(number 2 in Fig. 3).
  3. We select the appropriate sound (number 3 in Fig. 3) for the program event selected in the 2nd step.
  4. Click the “Apply” button (number 4 in Fig. 3).

If the Windows XP greeting sounds are not needed, that is, you need silence, then just select the “No sounds” option in the “Sound scheme” drop-down window (number 1 in Fig. 3).

Which do you prefer – when Windows welcome sounds are turned on or when they are turned off?
