I present to you My Collection of Splitting Windows Sounds. I started getting into this back in 2017-2018, when I started diving deep into the subject of what Windows sounds themselves consist of, as at the time (even at the moment) it doesn't describe what hardware, software was used to create the Windows sounds. Yes, it seems crazy, but why not? After all I'm not the only one who asked this question, maybe someone even tried to do it but in the end did not learn it to the end or maybe even abandoned it...

Many of you have asked that I share my Windows sounds split, for your fan work, or even make a remix out of it (will be interesting to listen to later hehe). Your wish has been granted! I've tried very hard to categorise everything so you can navigate.

And I'll also give you the good news that almost every version of Windows has BONUS Folders where I've been doing Extra Sound Splits, or rather their sound schemes! To be honest, I hadn't somehow planned for this, it was just a sudden idea, after the Windows XP sound splits.

Here you can find such versions of Windows:

- Windows 95 ÿ (In this folder I have placed into two categories of my splits, Basic and Detail, for convenience, and I have also put separately The Microsoft Sound.wav with the De-Noise version).
- Windows 2000 ÿ (in addition to its Logon and Logoff sounds, I've added a couple more system sound splits)
- Windows XP W (This split is considered the Most Juicy in my opinion, because I spent the most time splitting it up! There were lots of mistakes, fixes, especially Startup, Shutdown, but I managed to fight it off! I've attached two versions - RTM and Build 2481, but Build 2481 has much more splits than RTM, although I started the splits with the RTM version, but I didn't get to the end there, however I decided to share. By the way, only the Startup, Shutdown, Logon and Logoff sounds from Build 2481. On my YouTube channel plays from the RTM version, but you won't see in this folder because it makes no sense, they have the same sound, there's just a difference in quality...)
- Windows Se7en W (aka Vista, in fact, the sound scheme hasn't changed, so I decided to merge into one)
- Windows 8/8.1 ❖ (I also struggled a bit, it was just the last of the Windows sound splits, Logon Sound was at the very end, although I planned it before the sound scheme)
- Windows 11 ⊞

Sadly, you won't find some of the splits for other versions of Windows here: 

- Windows 1 ▆
- Windows 2 ▆
- Windows 3 ▯ (and also 3.11)
- Windows NT 4.0 ÿ
- Windows NT 5.0 ÿ (Including the Beta versions)
- Windows 98 ÿ
- Windows Whistler ÿ (Why did I enter this version here? Because there's a Legend about an allegedly leaked version of the Startup sound, but to some sources, it just used the sound from Microsoft Entertainment and the Logon sound from Windows 2000 Beta 3, although to be honest it sounds believable and even awesome, but unfortunately it's a fake sound, it still used sounds from Windows 2000 and then in latest builds the already well-known Windows XP sound scheme).
- Windows 10 ❖

The reason is that there's not much to split there, or I still haven't had time to do it, or I haven't been able to deal with them at all! If I happen to be able to get over it, I'll be sure to add a folder and let you all know about it.

Anyway, now I'm not the only one who will know what the Windows sounds themselves consist of, but now you will too!

Enjoy!
