Rick thanks for brushing up my instructions! -----Original Message----- From: Rick Justice Sent: Saturday, June 20, 2015 4:48 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Changing Windows Event Sounds I am passing this along from Mike B. How I change a sound. I will use changing the asterisk sound as the example. My media folder has Office installed, so my media folder, where your sounds are stored, will be different than someone's that doesn't: 1. Go to the control panel, Sounds Link, press enter, control + tab to, Sounds tab, tab 1 time & make note of the default sound scheme, it will be highlighted. 2. Tab to the Tree View & arrow down to, asterisk, in this case. 3. Tab 1 time & Play windows startup sound should be checked, tab again to, Sounds combo box, & Notify, is my default sound for the asterisk sound. Tab1 more time to the, Test button, press the spacebar to hear the sound that Notify makes, tab again to the, Browse button & press the spacebar. 4. Now, shift + tab, 2 times & you should be in a list of sounds in your media folder. Arrow up / down to another sound you want & press enter. You should be back on your Browse button, if this is the only sound you want to change press enter on the, Okay, button, but, if you want to change another sound tab to the, Apply button, & press enter spacebar, & tab back into the Tree View following steps 3 & 4 to change the sound. 5. When you're done changing sounds & you've applied & okayed everything you default sound scheme will have changed to, Windows Default (modified). So, what I do is save this as, Windows Default, using the, Save As, option tabbing 1 time from the Sound Scheme combo box. 6. Now, I highlight the, Windows Default, sound scheme, tab to, Apply, press the spacebar, tab to, Okay, press enter to save & close. This way for sure which is my default sound scheme. You can save your own sound scheme whatever you want, but remember to highlight, apply, & okay it. HTH Take care.

I do not know of a way to change just one sound.
