Some times you turn on your laptop or desktop and you keep hearing unplugging sounds, you checked your mouse, checked your keyboard, you checked all unplug-able devices but still no fix, if that's the case then this is for you.
First you need to unplug all connected devices be it a mouse, a keyboard or anything, then keep Plugin them back one by one to sort out the faulty one, or you can do the opposite. If that did not help and you still get those sounds even after you have unplugged all of your devices. then it might be your embedded devices that cause the problem so if you have a fingerprint scanner on your laptop then you need to unplug it by safely removing and ejecting it from status bar (see image bellow)


 If you did eject all of Devices that might cause the problem, and you still get that annoying sound, then you might need to take next step, which will completely disable that annoying sound, but keep in mind that you won't be able to hear legitimate unplugging sounds too.

First you need to go to  Control Panel and click on Hardware and Sound



Next click on Change system sounds


Now scroll down and search for Device Disconnect then set its Sound to None



After you have done above steps you will no longer hear those frustrating sounds, I hope I made things clear for you make sure you share the article with your friends
