    Hello Mahmoud,

    Thank you for reaching out I am Udit and I am glad to assist you today.

    To stop the sounds from your keyboard in Windows even after disabling sound toggles, Mahmoud can try the following steps:

    1. Turn off system sounds:

    Go to Control Panel > Sound > Sounds tab.

    In the "Program Events" list, scroll down and find Keyboard.
    
    Select it, and change the "Sounds" dropdown to None.
    
    Click Apply and then OK.
    
    1. Disable Touch Keyboard Sounds (if using a touchscreen or virtual keyboard): Go to Settings > Devices > Typing. Scroll down and turn off the toggle for "Play key sounds as I type."
    2. Turn off key sounds via the Registry Editor (advanced): Press Win + R, type regedit, and press Enter. Navigate to HKEY\_CURRENT\_USER\Control Panel\Sound. Find the value called KeyboardPreference and change it to 0 (if it's not already). * Restart the system.

    These steps should stop the keyboard sounds. Let me know if he needs further help!

    Regards

    Udit

    Disable Accessibility Features

    • Toggle Keys: Press Win + I to open Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard. Under "Use toggle keys", turn off the switch for "Play a sound when I press Caps Lock, Num Lock, or Scroll Lock" 13.
    • Filter Keys: In the same Keyboard settings, disable "Use filter keys" to prevent beeps when holding keys or typing rapidly 511.
    • Sticky Keys: Ensure "Use sticky keys" is turned off to avoid confirmation beeps for modifier keys like Ctrl or Shift 911.

    Check On-Screen and Touch Keyboard Settings

    • On-Screen Keyboard: If enabled, open it by pressing Win + Ctrl + O, then click Options and uncheck "Use click sound" 25.
    • Touch Keyboard: Go to Settings > Devices > Typing and disable "Play key sounds as I type" (if applicable) 25.

    Update or Roll Back Audio Drivers

    • Update Drivers: Open Device Manager (Win + X > Device Manager), expand "Sound, video, and game controllers", right-click your audio device (e.g., Realtek HD Audio), and select "Update driver" 7.
    • Roll Back Drivers: If a recent Windows update caused the issue, right-click the audio device in Device Manager > Properties > Driver > Roll Back Driver 10.

    Disable Background Audio Processes

    • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager > Startup. Disable any audio-related processes (e.g., Realtek Audio Manager) that might interfere with sound settings 7.

    Adjust Keyboard Power Settings

    • Open Control Panel > Devices and Printers > Right-click your keyboard > Properties > Hardware > Properties > Change Settings > Power Management. Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" 911.

    Modify Registry Settings (Advanced Users)

    • Warning: Editing the registry can cause system instability. Create a restore point first.
    • Press Win + R > type regedit > navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\TabletTip\1.7.
    • Right-click an empty space > New > DWORD (32-bit) Value > name it "EnableKeyAudioFeedback" and set its value to 0 3.

    Check Hardware-Specific Settings

    • Mechanical Keyboards: Some gaming keyboards have built-in sound profiles. Use the manufacturer’s software (e.g., Logitech G HUB, Razer Synapse) to disable click sounds 6.
    • Laptop Keyboards: Ensure no accidental key combinations (e.g., Fn + F9 or Fn + F10) are triggering sounds.

    Perform System Restore or Update Windows

    • System Restore: If the issue started after a recent change, go to Settings > System > Recovery > System Restore and revert to a previous restore point 8.
    • Windows Update: Check for pending updates (Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update) to resolve driver conflicts or bugs 10.

    Test with a Different Keyboard

    • Connect an external keyboard to rule out hardware issues. If the problem persists, the issue likely relates to software settings.

    By systematically addressing these areas, you should eliminate unwanted keyboard sounds even after toggling off system-wide audio controls. If the issue persists, consider contacting Microsoft Support or your keyboard manufacturer for further assistance.
