This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable the touch keyboard typing sound for your account in Windows 11.

Windows 11 includes a touch keyboard you can click/tap on to enter text. This can be handy if you have a PC with a touchscreen without a physical keyboard.

When you type on the touch keyboard, it will play a click sound indicating the key being pressed like on a physical keyboard.
