How do I turn off sound?

[dummzeuch]

Hello,

I seem to remember that there are entries in the Windows System Sounds dialog for the TortoiseSVN sounds and the article on https://www.zulius.com/how-to/turn-off-tortoisesvn-sounds/ suggests the same. Unfortunately I cannot find them.

Have they moved somewhere else? Or is it just my installation that is borked?

How do I turn off any sounds by TortoiseSVN? (And why are they turned on in the first place? Who wants that?)

I'm running TortoiseSVN 1.10.1 build 28295 - 64 Bit on Windows 8.1 64 Bit.

TSVN does not use custom sounds anymore. I think the last version to do that was 1.8.x or even earlier.

It now uses the normal system sounds which are used for such kinds of things (e.g., error sound, info sound).

If you want to disable those, you have to disable the system sounds.

I already have disabled all system sounds.

But now that you mention it: This was not directly within TorotoiseSVN but from a dialog opened by an internal program using one of the TortoiseSVN DLLs. Apparently that program still uses a pre 1.8 DLL then which then plays the custom sounds.

Thanks, I think you just have solved the riddle.

I just checked: That program calls "c:\program
files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe" which happens to be
TortoiseSVN 1.10.1.

it passes parameters to copy a branch in the remote repository:
/command:copy /path:<LocalPath> /url:https://<UrlOfANewTag>

And it's the "Copy Finished" dialog which plays a sound.

As I said, I have disabled all Windows Sounds. So where does this
sound come from?

Sorry for the late reply, but with temperatures above 35 degrees celsius I just can't do much after I get home from work. And I also went hiking during my holidays (got some nice pictures, but that's not the point).

Anyway:

TortoiseSVN only plays a sound in case of a warning or error situation, or some other (rare) situations which require your attention. For normal operation where nothing special happens, it never plays a sound.

But since that seems to be something a few (or a lot?) people don't like, I've added a new option in the settings dialog advanced page to disable even those.

That change was done in r28338.

There is no error or warning in that case, but there is a "Notice":

"Your working copy remains on the previous path ..."

Maybe that's the reason for the sound. The normal "commit finished" dialog does not play a sound.

Anyway. I'm looking forward to the next release where I can disable all sound. Thank you for your Work on TortoisSVN.
