How to turn off this annoying clicking sound when I type on my wireless keyboard (Windows 11)

Ever since this one update on windows 11, I would hear clicking sounds through my earphones whenever I type on my wireless keyboard. I've tried every method, watched every video about turning off clicking sounds in the keyboard settings, filter key sounds, sticky key sounds, windows sounds, system sounds and went through every setting possible related to the keyboard such as ease of access, accessibility and others yet it's been a few months now and I still couldn't find a solution to turning off this damn clicking sound ... I feel very defeated at this point. I just want to listen to music through my earphones while I type away on my assignments but this clicking sound is driving me MAD. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I swear I'm eventually going to burst a vein one of these days..

    Hello, this is Emily.

    The only feature from Windows that can cause clicking sound lives in Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard > Filter Keys. However, if that option is already turned off, this can be from third party.

    What type of wireless keyboard do you have? For example, I have one from Logitech and its own software has the typing sound effect feature. See if that can be a possibility.

    If you cannot think of any third party possibility, use this instruction to perform a clean boot : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-t...

    Let me know if it continues to make the sound after the clean boot. If it doesn't, then we know 100% sure that it is not coming from Windows, so it will be just a matter of finding out which third party software is causing this.

    My clicking sound won't turn off. I'm using the physical keyboard built into my laptop. This sound is very irritating and is wanting me to go back to Windows 10. Whenever try to chat with a human, it takes me to self-help articles with people having the same problem and no result in turning it off. This is so annoying, and I hate that I'm needing to talk to Microsoft about it. Things can never be easy. I've tried 4 different things related to typing sound. No turning it off. If you can help me with that and not send me to an article about some clean boot. I want help on how to turn off the sound. Or I'll got to many one of your competitors like Apple or Acer and get a non-beeping keyboard sound. I'm trying to show you a screenshot but my screenshot upload that failed. Another problem.
