Startup Sound

Okie dokie,

I want to disable the Windows Logon Sound for all users. I tried to create a custom .adm template, my I cannot seem to modify any (Default) keys. The .adm below will just ADD a key called (Default). I figure that the original (Default) is a special value, but I'd like to know how to modify it.

How did you do it?

Here's my .adm

CLASS USER

CATEGORY !!CatRemoveSound

POLICY !!CurrentSound
KEYNAME "AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\WindowsLogon\.Current"
PART !!CurrentSound EDITTEXT EXPANDABLETEXT
VALUENAME "(Default)"

END PART
END POLICY

END CATEGORY

[strings]
CurrentSound="Change Temp Location"
CatRemoveSound="Change Temp Location

Cheap and Nasty Reg script at login to remove (or set)

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\SystemStart\.Current]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\SystemStart\.Current]

Not quite as elegant as your solution, but I think it would work

Hi,

Rename the .wav file in Winnt\Media to .old.wav and that will fix it!

Cheers,
