    <p>Sound settings, (ex)Browser Settings !! Everything Windows 11 is made more difficult. Do MSFT really want people to use its stuff?</p>

    <p>Paul the solution I use (I had not attempted to tell windows not to sound alerts.) is to go to the System-&gt;Sound-&gt;Volume Mixer-&gt;System sounds and mute it. This does not stop popups but it does remove the sound which I find annoying. It is a solution that works for me.</p>

    <p>Nothing beats the "quack" sound in classic Mac OS.</p>
