Windows 10: shutdown sound problem

I have adjusted registry to allow access to system exit sound, which, by default in win10, is not visible. Having made it visible, even when I change to my preferred wav file, apply it, and play it for confirmation, when I shutdown, I hear only the ms default ding. I am able, for example, to change the empty recycle bin file sound and it works. Why not the system exit(shutdown) sound. What business is it of MS what sound I use? I am aware this is a problem, but does someone have a solution yet?

GDI+ Window Computer Freeze

Same here! Before shuting down I had issues with the sound of the computer - there was no sound at all. When I check in sound settings there was a massage that another device is being used. Then I tried to shutdown the machine and GDI+ Window was preventing
the shutdown process. This is constant problem...

 

ppc 6700 sound problem

Everything on the phone is working fine except all of my sounds went out. I can hear calls that come in but they can't hear me; screen taps, music, etc.--no sound except for a little static or jusort of short circuit type sound. Have no idea what the problem
is, any help will be greatly appreciated.



I've had the phone for over a year with no problems.

Also, the date and time jumped back 3 years.



Thanks again!

 

Hi, this has been discussed a few times here. Shutdown is fast, so an attempt to resurrect this using a registry hack, or by using a scheduled task will be unsuccessful as it is a deprecated feature (hence not available as it used to be in Win 7 say).

You might get part of the sound you have selected played if you use a scheduled task.

Please feel free to give feedback to MS - in particular, people with disabilities may find this feature helpful.
