Windows 10: CHANGING NEW MAIL SOUNDS / ALERTS.....

I recently purchased - through Microsoft Store - an app for "sounds" that can be used on the computer for new mail alerts, a smartphone, and others.


I had to convert the sound from MP3 to WAV format. I currently use Thunderbird for my email server, and have made the necessary changes in Thunderbird to use this new alert sound. {The "test" was successful and completed.} But, when I get emails, instead of hearing the "new" alert sound, I am still getting the original burp sound that I believe is from Windows - it was the sound I received BEFORE making the changes in Thunderbird.


Can anyone tell me how to change the default new mail alert sounds in Windows through <Settings>?


Thank you so much !!
