Thank you!!! I have had this computer for a while (it’s XP) and it didn’t make the noise until just today, I looked up this and did this in XP, and finally got rid of the annoying sound!

Thanks, is was especially annoying when having a popup blocker turned on and getting eight on nine “clicks” seemingly out of nowhere, glad I found this.

AAAAHHHHHH!!!!

I use vista business and keep turning windows sounds off (like i used to with XP) but every time I reboot they are tuned back on. Is this something to do with not having full user rights for a reg key?

Thanks,

Thanks so much!

I had looked in there before but didn’t identify start navigation as the culprit!

YES YES YES !!!!!!

Thank You!

Thanks you soooo much for this quick fix. I found it via a google search of these terms: “vista annoying click sound” Just confirms my belief that microsoft is completely nuts.

This did not work for me. Every time I click on anything, I hear an annoying clicking sound. It seems to be coming from my mouse. Any ideas?

If you cannot turn this sound off due to a group policy restriction, you can replace or rename the .wav file in the c:\windows\media\ directroy.

Thanks so much! When my music is playing loud, the overpowering clicks are just ridiculous!
