BeepChecker

Play, test or learn the standard Windows beeps - now a modern Tauri rework of the 2015 Windows Forms app.

BeepChecker is a simple but reliable tool to help you get familiar with various standard Windows sounds.

Sometimes it is quite difficult to understand what your computer is trying to tell you, especially if your operating system is new and you are still getting used to it.

BeepChecker allows you to play the sounds that Windows makes in different situations. This way you can learn to distinguish the messages sent by your operating system.

This tool contains two sections: "Standard Sounds" and "Custom Sounds". The first section offers six tones, each for a different situation. Press the appropriate button to hear the assigned sound.

"Simple Beep" is probably the most commonly used tone by your operating system. If you do not have a sound card, the beep will be emitted by speakers or headphones. The "OK beep" is considered the default Windows beep.

"Information beep" is also known as the Windows star sound. A "question beep" is played when the operating system asks you a question. "Warning Beep" is assigned for situations when your operating system is trying to get your attention. The "Error Beep" is the Windows "Critical Stop" sound.

And finally, the "Custom Beep" allows you to set your preferred frequency and duration and then press the "Play Beep" button. This specific feature is especially useful for testing speakers or headphones and seeing if the sounds they make are clean or if there is a problem.
