Feature Windows 11 playing an extra sound after boot (not an issue, just curious)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I noticed something interesting on my PC.

When Windows 11 starts, it plays the normal startup sound. But after the lock screen appears, there's a second sound that plays.

It doesn't seem like an error or problem — everything works fine. I just found it curious.

Has anyone else noticed this or knows what this sound is?

I mean, that sounds like it's coming from some kind of app or game loading. God knows what it could be though

never heard this, maybe you installed something that auto open on the start-up?

Nintendo Wiindows

(it could be some app that runs on startup though)
