Unwanted sound when moving to desktop using the "Move To" menu about movetodesktop

Uh oh, never heard this before, can you record the sound? Is it a windows sound?
MoveToDesktop should not play any sounds...

I also get sound when I move any window. It is a standard sound signal.

Yes, it's a standard Windows notification/alert for me - perhaps as a result of some call failing? Note the sound doesn't happen with the keyboard short-cut so perhaps that may narrow down the suspects in the code.

Surprisingly this sounds also happen to me with keyboard shortcut. but... not all the times... when I move chrome it happens, when word or notepad++ not :)

It doesn't bother me, just letting you know.

If you set Sound Scheme to No Sounds does it still play?

Here is what happens on my computer:

• Moving a Chrome window using hotkey -> sound
• Moving a Chrome window using context menu -> no sound
• Moving a Explorer.exe window using hotkey -> only in some windows/circumstances, the sound plays (when I release the Alt key, not before. this is different from the Chrome case, where the sound is played immediately, when the window disappears)
• Moving a Explorer.exe window using context menu -> no sound
• Moving Notepad++, Android Studio (and some other apps) window (and using hotkey or context menu-> no sound

The sound is a default sound from Windows called "Default Beep". As expected, it does not play if Windows Sound Scheme is set to "No sounds".

Good luck with the investigation :)

Hey, first of all, thank you for this nice addition to the desktop environment.
I know this is already a year old, but did you work on this sound problem? I have it as well. But only with Chrome, everything else doesnt make a sound moving it. When is the "Default Beep" sound as well, and it does not play if i disable windows sounds.

I am on the Windows 10 Education edtition. The version ist 1709.
