Windows Startup

Can I change Windows Startup sound?

from Stardock Forums

I see Windows Logon sound but I do not see the ability to change Windows Startup sound. 

Is this feature available in Sound Packager?

Disabled by default in windows 10 for faster startup. Though it can be re-enabled through this method.

Windows 11 however has it enabled by default again.

 

Though I do not believe it can be changed with sound packager.

I am aware and have enabled it. I hear the 'standard windows startup sound'. I have downloaded all the sounds used by Windows 11. I like that startup sound. I may want to change this again.... likely. There is no option in "Sound Packager 10" to change the windows StartUp sound. There is windows Logon sound but not startup. I notice there are two downloads for Sound Packager. I have "Sound Packager 10". Does the other Sound Packager have the option to change windows startup?

I'm looking for a way to do this as well. Now that Windows 11 has brought back the startup sound by default, it would be amazing if Sound Packager could actually let us customize it along with the logon sounds

Has anyone found a reliable workaround for this without breaking OS stability?

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. First off, do know that Sound Packager was not compatible with Windows 11 as can be seen here in Stardock App Compatibility list: https://forums.stardock.com/505717/stardock-app-compatibility/ 

Thank you,
