📋 About This Mod
If you're like me, you find the UI noise in Skyrim to be annoying, distracting, and useless. This is my solution.
This mod is a non-replacer, esp-based plugin that silences all UI sounds except for diagetic sounds like the lockpicking noises and the low-health heartbeat. Contains no sound files or other assets - plugin only.
What this removes: Level Up, Enchanting, Quest Updates, Perk Choice, Alchemy, Smithing, Loading Menu "Smoke" Noise, Map Rollover, Journal Noise, All Menus, All Magic Selection, Looting Pickup and Drop, Favorites, All "Fail" Noises, etc.
Fully compatible with all other sound mods - just load this one last.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved (483 endorsements) and widely downloaded (9,753 downloads).
- Non-replacer design means no file conflicts with other mods.
- Simple .esp plugin – just drop it in and go.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLCs.
- Only silences UI sounds – if you want to customize other audio, this won't help.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter UI sounds, though the non-replacer nature reduces risk.
For players who find the constant UI clicks and beeps annoying and want a quieter interface without losing important audio cues like lock picking and the heartbeat. Skip if you're looking for a full audio overhaul or if you play with mods that heavily modify UI sounds.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the .esp file in your Data folder and activate it in your mod manager or launcher.
- Since it's a non-replacer, you can safely remove it anytime without breaking your game.
- If you use other UI sound mods, load Silent UI after them to ensure its changes take priority.
