GamemutE : Instantly mute the audio in any game or application that is in the foreground, with a customizable hotkey, thanks to this lightweight app
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.
Versatile tool suitable for gamers, streamers and other users
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.
Simple but useful app for users who need to mute audio instantly
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.
Lightweight quality of life app that has a wide range of uses
All in all, 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.
