GamemutE

Originally designed for players of Arma 3’s Battle Royale mod or PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS, where it is often necessary to mute the sound when enterting the lobby, this program has now been enhanced to allow you to quickly mute any application that is in focus.

GamemutE is a very simple tray app that stays out of your way and provides you with an easy way to mute programs that are getting too loud.

The earlier versions of this application were designed to help users who play Arma 3 or PUBG, as it only supported these two games and no other programs. Now, however, it allows you to mute any application that is currently in focus.

If you want to unmute them, you simply need to press the user-defined hotkey again or just enable the audio again from the volume mixer.

The application is minimized to the system tray upon launch, and the global shortcut will remain active while it’s running in the background. However, there is no simple way to add it to the startup list, so you’ll have to do this the old-fashioned way.

If you don’t like the default global shortcut (F1), you can change it by double-clicking the application’s system tray icon. Just set any key or key combination you prefer, but remember to minimize the app and not close it.

GamemutE is only designed to perform a simple task, and it does it well. It enables you to instantly mute any game or application with a single hotkey, and it is very unovtrusive and easy to configure.
