Well, it should play 😈
We blatantly ignore the "Disable Sound Effects" setting here, because the update reminder is intended to be sort of "annoying", in order to give people some incentive to actually update their version...
But: Why the heck there is no update available now?
That is because I'm a bit late, this time around. So, seriously, shame on me for that! :cold_sweat:
(New version will hopefully be released soon™)
Regards.
Well it was more of a jumpscare for me, but I got the message 😄 Oh and just a version bump without feature changes would do the trick!?
released soon™

Or when your kid is asleep. I shouldn't have to mute the program through Window's sound mixer, or write my own implementation of this software in python to avoid dev that trolls his users lol.
imho, completely disabling the software as you once did if an update is available is more reasonable. Get rid of version expirations, some people don't have access to internet. If people don't update it's their fault, as a result they miss out on new features and/or bug fixes. The same thing tends to apply to pirates, if you pirate software don't expect help/support/updates/bug fixes.
Music playing is totally unacceptable, I sometimes have recording sessions, and output is connected to high volume monitors. Opening lameXP would ruin that session and play a very loud sound. Popup is annoying but it won't ruin anything. PLEASE disable all sounds when that option is checked, (that should be default behaviour). If one checked: Don't check for updates, shouldn't it mean that? Sometimes I might want a particular old version, or simply don't want to test a new version until I'm ready: I don't update critical machines, sometimes it breaks things.
I believe the older versions completely disable themselves

The regular automatic (every 14 days) update check can be disabled.
The warning about using a deprecated program version can't be skipped, an that is for a reason :grimacing:

Only pre-release TEST builds will expire after 31 days. Official releases never "disable themselves".
