想要在您最喜欢的浏览器中静音选项卡有很多原因。也许您正在打开多个标签，其中一个会自动播放广告？声音太大了，吓到了你，很可能是邻居，所以你疯狂地试图找到它正在播放的标签。你感到非常沮丧，以至于你开始一个接一个地关闭它们，直到声音最终消失。
这种事情会很快变得烦人。值得庆幸的是，谷歌 Chrome(Google Chrome)和Mozilla Firefox等现代桌面网络浏览器让您能够在不占用宝贵时间和理智的情况下消除这些烦恼。让我们向您展示如何在Chrome、Safari、Firefox和其他浏览器中将标签静音。
如何在 Chrome、Safari、Firefox 等中将浏览器选项卡静音(How To Mute a Browser Tab In Chrome, Safari, Firefox, & More)
首先，您需要知道如何识别哪个标签是试图炸毁您的耳膜的标签。罪魁祸首标签可以很容易地被带有扬声器图标的标签识别出来。
您需要做的就是查找此图标，然后您就会知道要导航到哪个选项卡。现在，剩下的就是在不彻底杀死标签本身的情况下制止它的听觉恐怖统治。
Google Chrome、Mozilla Firefox 和 Brave(Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, & Brave)
这三个浏览器在如何使浏览器选项卡静音方面都有类似的方法。每个都将在选项卡本身内显示该扬声器图标。停止噪音所需要做的就是单击选项卡中的图标。它将从一个正常的音量图标变为一个带有斜线的图标，表示该选项卡已静音。
如果由于某种原因该图标对您来说太小，或者您尝试单击它但不小心一直按到靠近它右侧的X ，则还有另一种使选项卡静音的方法。(X)您可以右键单击选项卡以拉出一个简短菜单。找到静音选项卡(Mute tab)的选项并单击它。问题解决了。
Google Chrome和Brave共享Firefox所不具备的功能是能够在选项卡中将特定站点的所有选项卡静音。(Brave)在同一个菜单中，您会找到Mute Site，它会按照它所说的那样做，但现在和将来来自该站点的所有选项卡。
所有这三个惊人的浏览器还拥有自动静音功能。这意味着您可以对其进行设置，以使带有刺耳音乐和声音的烦人广告自动静音。在Chrome(Chrome)和其他浏览器中静音选项卡的功能允许您将可以和不能自动播放声音的站点放在一起的白名单。
Google Chrome和Brave自动静音功能可以通过Settings > Additional Settings > Privacy and security > Site Settings (or Content Settings) > Sound找到。然后，您可以开始添加您不再希望自动播放声音的站点。
Firefox采用类似但更短的路径。导航到Options > Privacy and Security > Autoplay。从这里您可以将下拉菜单中的选项更改为阻止音频(Block Audio)并开始将网站添加到白名单。
苹果 Safari 和 Opera(Apple Safari & Opera)
在Safari(Safari)和Opera中禁用浏览器选项卡与本文中提到的浏览器类似。您可以找到音量图标并单击它，或者右键单击选项卡并选择静音选项卡(Mute Tab)。它们的不同之处在于Safari还具有一个活动选项卡静音此选项卡(Mute This Tab)选项。可以在位置栏中找到一个扬声器图标，您可以切换该图标以使您所在的选项卡静音。
在Opera中右键单击一个选项卡时，您有机会静音其他选项卡(Mute other tabs)。如果您专注于单个浏览器标签并希望避免被其他可能带有自动播放广告的标签所困扰，此功能会非常方便。
微软边缘(Microsoft Edge)
Microsoft Edge是本文中的异常值。它确实有音量图标让您知道标签正在播放声音，但与其他浏览器不同，它没有直接的方法来静音浏览器标签。
相反，您必须右键单击屏幕右下角通知区域中的扬声器图标，然后选择Open Volume Mixer。
然后，您需要找到播放声音的Edge浏览器选项卡。(Edge)找到后，单击页面名称下方的扬声器图标将其静音。取消静音将要求您重新执行此过程，或者只需关闭并重新打开选项卡。
在微软(Microsoft)开始将他们的浏览器带入 2020 年代之前，您真正能做的唯一另一件事就是使用不同的浏览器或完全停止声音。
要禁用无限期播放声音而不是单独关闭每个声音，您可以阻止Edge播放任何声音。
- 导航到您的控制面板(Control Panel)。
- 单击Internet 选项(Internet Options)。
- 进入(Head)“高级”选项卡并向下滚动到“多媒体(Multimedia )”部分。
- 取消选中标有在网页中播放声音(Play sounds in webpages)的框。
要再次启用声音，您必须按照相同的步骤将复选标记放回在网页中播放声音(Play sounds in webpages)之外的框中。
How to Mute a Browser Tab in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and More
There are many reasons for wanting to mute a tab in your favorіte browser. Perhaps you’re opening up multiрle tabs and one of them auto-plays an ad? It’s so loud it startles you and quite poѕsibly the neighbors, sо yoυ frаntically try tо locаte which tab it’s playing in. You get so fruѕtrated that you just start closing them all one by one until the sound finally dies out.
This sort of thing can get annoying real fast. Thankfully, modern desktop web browsers like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox have given you the power to remove such annoyances without taking up precious time and sanity. Let us show you how to mute a tab in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and other browsers.
How To Mute a Browser Tab In Chrome, Safari, Firefox, & More
First thing’s first, you’ll need to know how to identify which tab is the one attempting to blow out your eardrum. The culprit tab can easily be identified by the one with a speaker icon on it.
All you need to do is look for this icon and you’ll know which tab to navigate to. Now, all that’s left is to put a stop to its reign of audial terror without outright killing the tab itself.
Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, & Brave
These three browsers all have a similar approach on how to mute a browser tab. Each one will display that speaker icon inside the tab itself. All you have to do to stop the noise is click the icon in the tab. It will go from a normal looking volume icon into one with a slash across it indicating the tab is muted.
If for some reason the icon is too small for you or you attempt to click it but keep hitting the X so close to the right of it by accident, there is another method for muting a tab. You can right-click the tab to pull up a short menu. Locate the choice for Mute tab and click it. Problem solved.
Something that Google Chrome and Brave share that Firefox does not is the ability to mute all tabs from a specific site right there in the tab. In the same menu you’ll find Mute Site which will do as it says but for all tabs from that site now and in the future.
All three of these amazing browsers also boast an auto-mute feature. This means that you can set it up so that annoying ads with blaring music and sounds are automatically muted. The feature to mute a tab in Chrome and other browsers allows you to put together a whitelist of sites that can and cannot auto-play sounds.
Google Chrome and Brave auto-mute feature can be found by navigating through Settings > Additional Settings > Privacy and security > Site Settings (or Content Settings) > Sound. You can then begin adding sites you no longer want to auto-play sounds.
Firefox takes a similar but shorter path. Navigate to Options > Privacy and Security > Autoplay. From here you can change the option in the drop-down menu to Block Audio and begin adding websites to the whitelist.
Apple Safari & Opera
Muting a browser tab in Safari and Opera is similar to the aforementioned browsers so far in this article. You can locate the volume icon and click it or right-click the tab and choose Mute Tab. Where they differ is that Safari also features an active tab Mute This Tab option. A speaker icon can be found in the location bar that you can toggle to mute the tab you’re on.
When right-clicking a tab in Opera, you’re given the chance to Mute other tabs. This feature can be incredibly handy if you’re focused on a single browser tab and would like to avoid being annoyed by other tabs that may feature an auto-play ad.
Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge is the outlier in this article. It does have the volume icon to let you know a tab is playing sound but unlike the rest of the browsers, it has no direct way to mute a browser tab.
Instead, you’ll have to right-click the speaker icon in the notification area at the bottom right corner of your screen and select Open Volume Mixer.
Then you’ll need to locate the Edge browser tab playing the sound. Once found, click the speaker icon below the name of the page to mute it. Unmuting will require that you either redo this process all over again or simply close and reopen the tab.
Until Microsoft gets around to bringing their browser into the 2020s the only other thing you can really do is either use a different browser or put an end to sound altogether.
To disable sounds from playing indefinitely instead of the need to turn each one off individually, you can prevent Edge from playing any sounds whatsoever.
- Navigate to your Control Panel.
- Click on Internet Options.
- Head into the “Advanced” tab and scroll down to the Multimedia section.
- Uncheck the box labeled Play sounds in webpages.
To enable sounds once again you’ll have to follow the same steps to place the checkmark back in the box besides Play sounds in webpages.
