It may depend upon the version of Windows, but Window-Eyes sounds are in the Sound Schemes in Control Panel. It is easy to miss them. If you arrow down through the list of Windows sounds, you will find other software sounds as well.
In Windows 10, it is possible to set the volume of the sounds for particular software packages including, I believe, muting them. It is worth looking for Window-Eyes sounds when Window-Eyes is running to see if that could be the problem. Unfortunately, it is hard to give exact steps as there are some variations depending upon which version of Windows is being used. I type volume into the cortana edit box and get "Adjust System Volume as a result. Right now, I am running JAWS and I see JAWS sounds there. Yes, some of us have to switch to JAWS because Window-Eyes and JAWS works with some of my employer's software that does not work with NVDA or Narrator.

The rest of the windows sounds seem to work, but the sounds that window eyes uses are suddenly non-existent. I tried to find out where they were, and can't. Can anybody tell me how to get them back? That and the messages that go with them? Pam. -----Original Message----- From: Don H via Talk Sent: Wednesday, July 26, 2017 11:21 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: been a great ride I have been a member of this list for many many years and have received lots of help over those years. Sadly I have moved away from Window Eyes and am now using NVDA as well as the free transfer to Jaws. Thanks to Doug for getting us WE users that free Jaws as I would have never paid for Jaws. Having made the switch I know that WE has been the best screen reader for me and it is a dam shame that Doug and crew couldn't have done a better job of promoting their product so they could have beaten Jaws. Thanks to all that have put up with me. I am now unsubscribing from the list and hope to see many of you on the NVDA and Jaws lists. _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
