    Thanks for your help. I did what you said and I still have sounds when I delete an item in Outlook or do something in Excel. So annoying. I have unclicked everything that I can find where there is a sound notification. What's next? Thanks for your help.

      In the Sounds tab of the Sound control panel in Windows, scroll down until you see the Exclamation sound. Set it to None.
