ποΈ How to Set Up and Use the Volume Mixer in Windows 11 ποΈ
π Want to control the volume for individual apps or system sounds on your Windows 11 device? The Volume Mixer lets you adjust audio levels for each app separately, giving you control over which sounds are louder or quieter. Hereβs how to set it up:
Steps to Access and Use the Volume Mixer in Windows 11:
Open Settings
Click on the Start button, then select Settings, or press Windows + I on your keyboard to quickly open the Settings.
Go to Sound Settings
In the Settings window, click on System, then select Sound in the left-hand menu.
Open Volume Mixer
Scroll down in the Sound settings until you find the Volume Mixer section, and click on it.
Adjust Individual App Volumes
In the Volume Mixer, youβll see sliders for your main output device and for any open applications that use sound (e.g., a web browser, media player).
Drag the sliders to adjust the volume for each app separately, setting them to your preferred levels.
Change Output Device for Each App (Optional)
You can also change the output device for each app if you have multiple audio devices connected (like speakers, headphones, or external monitors). Click on the dropdown menu next to each appβs volume slider to select a different output device.
Mute or Unmute Apps
To mute an app, click the speaker icon next to the volume slider. To unmute, click the speaker icon again.

Accessing Volume Mixer Quickly: Right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select Open Volume Mixer to jump directly to the Volume Mixer settings.
Control Panel Access: You can also access a basic version of the Volume Mixer by right-clicking on the speaker icon in the taskbar and selecting Open volume mixer.
