How could I make a timed mute button on windows 10?


I am aware of one method to put a mute button link on the desktop of windows 10, but is there a simple way to run this link twice within a time period? Would it be simple to make a script to launch the shortcut twice?

Answer



I would use an AutoHotkey script like:


^!m::
Send {Volume_Mute}
Sleep, 600000
Send {Volume_Mute}
return

When you use the hotkeys: ctrl+alt+m this script will "push the mute button" (even if you don't have a physical one), wait 10 minutes (600000 miliseconds) and then "push the button" again to unmute
