Start up sound Mac OS Catalina

Hi,

I'd like to shut start up OS Catalina sound.

There isn't such settings available from sound settings in 2021 from macbook pro 2020 lol.

I tried terminal codes in vain.

I'd appreciate a cure fellows,

Have nice day

Hello Guy1RM, 


We understand that in macOS Catalina, you’re looking for a way to disable the start up chime. 


This is an option in macOS Big Sur, but not in macOS Catalina. If you're unable to update, one thing you can try is muting the system volume before powering off your Mac. Since there isn’t an option to disable the sound in macOS Catalina, you an also provide some product feedback on how you’d like to see this change in your particular version of macOS. Here’s the link Product Feedback - Apple


Thanks.
