    Hello,
    Where is the welcome sound of the Windows start and Windows Shut Down?
    No sounds this time in Windows 8?

    The startup sound is a separate check box just under the Program Events Sounds selection box.
    No shut down sound so far that I can find.

    Same place as always.
    Control Panel->All Control Panel Items->Sounds->Sounds Tab (Control Panel View by: Small Icons)
    or
    Windows 8 CP Desktop (from metro Win Logo Key + D)
    right click and choose "Personalize"
    and then select the Sounds Icon along the bottom
