New Update Fail! Added sound for screenhots cannot be turned off and is recorded into videos!

As the title says - pleeease make some hotfix that will either allow us to turn off the newly added sound when you create screenshot, or remove it completely. As soon as i saw it in the patch notes i knew it will be problem.
I am content creator and during gameplay recording i am also often capturing screenshots for thumbnails for later. But now i cannot do that, because the annoying newly added sound gets captured into the gameplay video recording. How come nobody thought about this? Maybe i am blind (and if yes i am sorry), but i searched everywhere in action and there is no way to turn the sound off. I thought that if i open windows sounds settings and put Action volume to 0, it should get rid of the camera shutter screenshot sound but it should not affect the game sound that is being recorded into the video, but it doesnt work. If you do this, the resulting video has no sound at all for some reason, even though Action uses different source of the sound that is set to 100% in windows.

Me too, too bad for a perfect version like this. I can't record while playing the game and it affects my content creation work :x

The new version improvement should fix the bugs better. Looking forward to more with the setup programs.

Where? I can't seem to find how to turn this off either after updating. It's driving me nuts!

I have the exact same issue the original poster is describing. I lowered my action's volume thinking I could get rid of the shutter sound but all my videos no longer have sound. And now I can no longer adjust my Action!'s volume in windows 11 sound mixer. It is grayed out for me and I am unable to adjust it. I tried resetting my sound devices, restarting Action!, restarting computer, uninstalling and reinstalling and Action! now reminds grayed out permanently. It was working just fine yesterday, no idea why I suddenly can't change my volume.
