If you’re like me, you have literally hundreds of games and going through them to find at-risk sounds would be impossible. So I made this plugin that prints out all the sounds in your game, organized by creator, so you can easily see which sounds are controlled by accounts you don’t own.

Roblox has already created an auto installed plugin literally doing the same thing but better.
Audio Discovery Plugin & Workflow
As we prepare to roll out this feature, you should take the time to review the audio assets in your experience to ensure that they will continue working once the privacy changes take effect.
The latest version of Studio includes a new Audio Discovery Plugin. Make sure to upgrade to the latest version of Studio to access it.
The Audio Discovery Plugin tool will help you find audio assets in your experiences. The tool will only show accurate results in published Places, non-published Places will mark audio as “needs to be replaced” because it will not be able to perform the appropriate checks.
The Audio Discovery plugin will do a few things:
Scan a Place for all the audio assets it references. This scan includes Sound Instances as well as audio assetIds in Lua code, IntValues, and StringValues.
Check whether the audio is expected to continue working after March 22:
Asset uploader is the same as the experience creator
OR the audio length is under 6s
OR the audio is uploaded by the Roblox account or our music and SFX partners
Display the results of the check:
Blue checks indicate no change is needed
Red X’s indicate that this audio should be replaced. Replace this audio with:
New audio uploaded by the user or Group that published the experience
OR audio uploaded by the Roblox account or our music and SFX partners
Green checks indicate audio that you have replaced so far
Show all locations where audio assets are used
Note: If you script events based on a sound playing as a trigger for gameplay, please be aware that these events will NOT fire if the sounds fail to load because of privacy.
Begin reviewing the content of your experiences now. You will have until March 22, 2022, to make any necessary changes.

Nice, that’s way better than mine

The one downside I’ve seen in the Roblox plugin is that you cant right-click copy the id number to paste it into a url, so if that link button actually works I’d consider it an improvement.

can you open a script with the sound using a button?
