And no, I'm not talking about setting them as Events - I've tried that, and it's unreliable, slow to start or they don't play at all. No, this solution works 100% of the time and is reliable: old.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/6pak6o/windows_xp_sound_scheme_pop_up_tones_and_stuff/Download the program from the mediafire link and install it. Ignore the title being about XP sounds - you can change it to whatever you want. Now, login/logoff, shutdown and startup sounds will work like in past Windows versions. If you don't want the XP scheme, change it to whatever one you want in "Sounds'. That's it. EDIT: You might have to re-enable the entries for each in the registry first, before this works. Or you might not. I don't really know, but it's prob best to do so first to be on the safe side: www.howtogeek.com/274010/how-to-change-the-windows-10-logoff-logon-and-shutdown-sounds-in-windows-10/EDIT2: I should've done this in the beginning, and I'm truly sorry to the author of the program that I didn't (I honestly forgot to), but full credit goes to Ironc*nt over on Reddit for the program and making this all possible. |

This can also be easily and effectively done through Winaero Tweaker if you don't already have it.

It allows you to change the startup sound, which is a doodle and doesn't need either events or an external program to achieve. The login/logoff and shutdown sound entries were removed in W10, and no amount of registry changes will bring them back. You either need to set them up as Events or use the program in the opening post to get them back; Winaero can only bring back the Startup sound. |

Can confirm this works on 1803, and it is very nice to have this feature back!

Cheers. mega.nz/file/6w0yWYAa#YUnPoGojLXtnKxavyctiYAtdl5dKA6sf-zVAEgom_9AThanks fo backing it up. Really strange, that Reddit link was still working two weeks ago (I tried using the program for my W2G W8 install) but yeah, the author's account's been deleted, prob because of his username handle. |
