There’s much to love about Windows Phone, and then there are also a few annoyances also.
One of the most unnecessary issues is the “Permanent Hearing Damage” pop-up, which appears to show up randomly, and then most annoyingly will automatically turn the volume down to half the maximum.
Now the warning is fine, and may even be prudent to avoid legal issues related to hearing loss in users.
Windows 10 - biggest Windows related subreddit for all things related to Windows 10. Is there any way to disable the high volume warnings? I rolled my Realtek audio driver back to the 8/7/2012 version and the warning went away. Windows key + x- device manager- sound video and game controllers- right click realtek HD audio. Jun 09, 2020 Windows 10 and 8 include a volume display that appears at the top left corner of the screen whenever you adjust the volume using a shortcut key. While some users may find the volume on-screen display useful, as it gives feedback when the volume up or down buttons are used on the device, others dislike the popup for a number of reasons.
Turning down the volume however is a 1000 steps too far, and is actually pretty dangerous.
Many of us use our phones to listen to music or podcasts when driving, connected to a stereo which of course has its own volume controls, and when the volume gets reduced suddenly and unexpectedly, it requires the driver to take their attention off the road and their hands off the wheel to fix the issue.
The volume “bug” happens regularly and repeatedly, and with 50 + million Windows Phone users out there, if it has not already caused a car accident it will likely soon.
The are already complaints about the issue on Uservoice, but surprisingly it only has a few votes. With Microsoft clearly still working on Windows Phone 8.1, now would be a good time to add your voices to demand the removal of this unnecessary and dangerous issue.

Edit: Some readers do not appear to believe this is a serious issue. The stats say differently. Distracted driving causes more than 3000 deaths a year in USA. More than 400,000 people are injured.
- “Adjusting radio/cassette player/CD” is the second most reported cause of distraction related accidents.
- Reaching for a cell phone increases your odds of getting in an accident more than 7 times.
- Reaching for a cell phone distracts a driver for 4.6 seconds, or the equivalent of the length of a football field, if the vehicle is traveling 55 miles per hour.
The increased risk is real, and in this case it is being increased for no good reason. The warning is fine, but dropping the volume, causing users to need to act to correct it, is wrong and dangerous.
I bought a laptop a long time ago but I never really used it enough to notice this.
I am now using it every day and every time a Windows 10 notification shows up, both my ears bleed (not really but you get the idea).
The volume of these notifications is EXTREMELY loud.

System Sounds
The first instinct that anyone like me will have, is to lower the “System sounds” volume.
Unfortunately, this didn't do it.
It used to fix it back in Windows 7/8, but for some reason, it doesn't work in Windows 10.

EarTrumpet
I googled for some time, trying to find a solution for this but Microsoft's Answers forum didn't really help.
Most of the time it's either they don't help you at all or they tell you to launch a “Troubleshoot sound problems”, which of course doesn't do anything…

I then found the message of “Jeremy_see” here and decided to give EarTrumpet a go (even though he says it resets after every boot).
Turns out I couldn't even install this, whenever I try to I get an unexplained error in the Microsoft Store. It retries 2 more times and then gives up.
Not only that, for every error I get a Windows 10 notification.

After some time digging in a couple of settings in Windows, I thought I finally found it…
In Settings > System > Sound > App volume and device preferences.
The “New notification” setting, that I happily lowered to 6 and tested it on the Microsoft Store error.

Turns out, as the name suggests it, that slider is only for a single notification and will go back to 100 after a while.
How do we save our ears from these Windows 10 notifications
As much as I was annoyed, I didn't really want to remove the sound completely (which can easily be done in the Sound control panel).
Instead:

- I took the notification sound from
C:WindowsmediaWindows Notify System Generic.wav
. - I opened it in Audacity.
- I used the Amplify Effect and reduced the value to -24 dB.
- Saved it back (separate file, since I couldn't override the old one).
- Went to the Sound control panel and used the new one.
Be aware that if you test it from the Sound control panel, the System Sounds volume will work on it so make sure you test it on something else.
