This subject has been brought up before. The Quicken sounds are twice as loud as every other app on my computer and it is very annoying. The "suggested solution" is to adjust the Windows Sound Control. In other words, Quicken is saying "Not our problem", and have consequently closed older threads on this subject. It seems to me Quicken could easily add a sound control for the app which many other apps seem to have. Or just set the sound level lower by about 50%. Why is Quicken reluctant to do this?
