How To: Change Default System Sounds In Windows 7
Posted January 22, 2009 – 1:49 pm in: Windows 7, Windows 7 GuidesHave you ever thought of changing the default Windows sounds? If not, then you can do it easily in all visions of Windows. But, in this guide, I will be focusing on changing default system sounds in Windows 7 operating system.
In my system, this is one of the first items that I remove when I install Windows 7 or any other versions of Windows since I get irritated with the system sounds.
If you would like to change the default Widows sounds, then follow the below instructions:
1. Right-click on Desktop and select Personalize.
2. Click on the link named “Sounds” at the bottom of the window.
3. Next, select a sound event from the list and then hit Browse button. Note that you need to have your customized new sound file in .wav format.
4. Select your desired .wav sound track and click Open and then click Apply.
5. Once you change the sound, just hit the Play button to test the customized sound.
Repeat the procedure from step 3 to step 5 to customize all or any sound event. Only thing you need to remember is that Windows supports only .wav files.
