Question

Turning off sounds

Is there a way to just totally silence Quickbooks Desktop? I have gone into the System Sounds dialog box in Windows 10 and answered "None" for all of the Quickbooks actions listed there, but I still get noise when, for example, I save transactions.

 

I want to listen to something else as I use QB, and I ought to be able to have the program operate silently.

Hi there, @Edificare.

 

I can help you turn off the sounds in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) every time you save a transaction.

 

Here's how:

 

1. Go to the Edit menu, and then choose Preferences.

2. From the Preferences window, click General.

3. In the My Preferences window, uncheck the box beside Beep when recording a transaction.

4. Hit OK once done.

 

That's it! The beep sounds are now off. 

 

For future help, I'm attaching an article below that will give you the answers you need for QuickBooks Desktop: Help article.

 

If you need more help in setting your preferences, feel free to reach back out. I'll be more than happy to help. Take care.
