Windows sounds gone with previous avast update

Hi

:-[ Idiot here! I have lost all my window sounds, they are still there in control panel, but the only ones working are the avast virus ones!

Any help please

ps I have win xp pro

Maybe you have to extract the files from your CD… They should be packed into some CAB or ZIP file… ::slight_smile:

Are the sound files still on your hd?

Yes all the sounds are still on my HD, I just cant get them into sounds in control panel.

Why not? Can’t you associate a sound to any desired event?
I make a ‘registry key’ backup in order to ‘upload’ this settings if I miss them or change the computer…

Can you play the sounds in lets say Media Player or Winamp?
