To upgrade WinMute, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To uninstall WinMute, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download winmute --internalize --version=2.1.0.20220802 --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade winmute -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2.1.0.20220802'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade winmute -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2.1.0.20220802'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

WinMute automatically mutes your PC volume if you lock your screen or the screensaver is running.
Version 2.1.0 (2022-08-02)
* Added new feature to mute workstation when an bluetooth audio device
disconnects (and re-enable audio if it reconnects)
* Fixed saving of SSID-lists
* Fixed some spelling errors
Version 2.0.0 (2022-05-01)
* WinMute now mutes all audio endpoints and not just the default endpoint.
It also stores all endpoint states and restores them if the appropriate
option is set.
* Reworked mute detection logic. This should fix timing errors, e.g. when
screensaver with screenlock is active.
* WinMute can now mute your computer when it is connected (alternatively
when it is _not_ connected) to a particular wireless network.
* Added detection for display standby
* Added detection for RDP sessions
* Added autostart option (no more fiddling with the Startup-folder)
* Added Hi-DPI awareness
* Added tray icon for bright system theme
* UI Rework (New settings and about dialogue)
* Various fixes and improvements
* Updated project to VS 2022
Version 1.6.0 (2020-12-18)
* Added "Quiet Hours": A time frame where WinMute automatically
mutes and afterwards unmutes your workstation.
* Added proxy process to recognize screensaver startup when
the current foreground application is a 32-bit application
* Removed 32-bit build.
Version 1.5.0 (2020-06-29)
* Added support for mute on suspend, shutdown and logout
Automatic audio-restore is disabled for these events.
Version 1.4.6 (2020-04-24)
* Compiled with spectre migitations... just 'cause
* Added "Support"-Link to About dialog
* Small menu redesign.
Version 1.4.5 (2019-09-04)
* Fixed crash when all audio endpoints are removed while the program is running
(might happen, when connecting to your PC via RDP).
* Upgraded compiler toolset to VS2019
Version 1.4.4 (2017-08-14)
* New, simpler icon
* System notification area icon is now white, to fit better with
with windows' default icons
* Upgraded compiler toolset to VS2017
Version 1.4.3 (2016-08-11)
* Maintenance release, no new features
* Upgraded to new compiler toolset
* Removed Windows XP as I can also no longer test it and as Visual Studio 2015
no longer supports this platform.
* Use more modern UI elements
Version 1.4.1/1.4.2 (2014-07-17)
* Fixed screensaver muting: It sometimes happened that WinMute
muted Windows Audio for no apparent reason and "forgot" to
unmute. This is now fixed.
Version 1.4 (2014-07-10)
* WinMute can now also mute if the screensaver starts
Due to windows restrictions, unmuting the audio can take up to one second
after the screensaver resumes.
* Added a toggle switch to configure if WinMute should unmute at all after
a workstation lock or a screensaver run
Version 1.3 (2012-02-23)
* Right-click menu is now correctly dismissed if the user clicks somewhere
outside of the menu.
* Embedded Visual C++ 2010 DLLs. This increases file size by about 100kb, but
enables the usage of this tool in workplaces that do not have deployed the
Visual C++ 2010 Runtime Environment yet.
* Vista/7/8: Correctly mute the new device, if the default audio endpoint
changes.
* XP: Greatly improved hardware detection code. WinMute now mutes all devices,
instead of just setting the volume of the first device it finds to zero.
If the Mute-Button is locked via Group Policies, WinMute will try to
use the Volume Slider to "emulate" sound muting.
* XP: Actively tries to prevent other programs from unmuting the system.
Version 1.2 (2011-05-30)
* Fixed a bug where WinMute could malfunction if the audio
device was changed or disconnected during a windows session.
Version 0.0 - 1.1
* These documents have been lost forever...

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
