There are two excellent open source tools that can help with this problem: <a href="https://github.com/File-New-Project/EarTrumpet">EarTrumpet</a> i <a href="https://github.com/irzyxa/Volume2">Volume2</a> and both can be easily installed using the Scoop command <code>scoop install eartrumpet volume2</code>. </p> <p>If you're specifically looking to reduce the volume of that one annoying "bing" Windows error notification, I've opted to implement a solution from the post on <a href="https://blog.zhaytam.com/2019/02/08/lower-windows-10-notifications-volume/">how to reduce the volume of annoying Windows notifications</a> as this is my preference.</p> <p>You need to open a PowerShell window as an Administrator and copy and paste the following<br> </p> <div class="highlight js-code-highlight"> <pre class="highlight plaintext"><code>$n="Windows Notify System Generic"; $p = "${Env:WINDIR}\Media"; cp "$p\$n.wav" "$p\$n.wav.bak"; taskkill /f /im explorer.exe; explorer.exe; curl.exe -o "${p}\${n}.wav" "https://blog.zhaytam.com/audio/Windows-Notify-System-Generic.wav" </code></pre> </div> <p>Don't worry, there needs to be a "glitch" as the Explorer process needs to be restarted as it probably holds a lock on the desired audio file.</p> windows tips cvladan Sun, 21 May 2023 17:31:40 +0000 https://dev.to/cvladan/css-sticky-is-weird-and-hard-eca https://dev.to/cvladan/css-sticky-is-weird-and-hard-eca <p>I've fixed that issue - if the parent is "flex", then <code>align-self: start;</code> must be applied. And of course, <code>top: 0px;</code> as well.</p>
