Mute the volume during logoff - Windows XP

Is there any script or using registry settings mute the volume during logoff.

This will give you the same effect:

Goto "control panel" then "Sound and audio devices". click on "sounds" tab. find the "exit windows" event in the list below, then assign it to "None".

Thats on WinXP

I just want is there anyother way to do this.

Can we do this using scripts or registry settings.

The settings S0lo mentions will be stored in the registry somewhere. If you can find them you might be able to manipulate them via Group Policy or by creating a script. Certainly in Perl you can manipulate registry settings (using the ActiveState libraries) or alternatively you could try creating .reg files to make and unmake the changes with a suitable batch file to apply them

The registry key you're looking for can be found at: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\WindowsLogoff
for the current user. You can of course navigate to the appropriate user hive for any other user.

And a nice tool to monitor registry changes on the fly is "Regmon" here:
