    Changing notification sounds


    Hi,I downloaded the old windows 10 sounds, and tried to change the notification, email, and messaging sounds in the control panel and when I do none of the notifications make sound, they are .wav files so I'm not sure what is going on here. All i want are a few of the notifcation sounds changed to windows 10 sounds.

    :)

    (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

    Changing notification sounds

    How to change notification sound for ICQ ?

    Okay, sounds like its probably a built-in notification sound and would be very hard to change *Confused.

    I guess you could go searching for a third-party program/software that allows you to change the notification sound, but I am doubtful that there will be one specifically for ICQ 10.

    You could have a look at trying Skype if you want an alternative.

    Other than the suggestions above I am not sure if I can help you any further, sorry *Sad. Perhaps a more experienced member can suggest a manual way of changing the notification sound by means of delving deeper into ICQ's program code/construction? *Wink

    You could also contact ICQ directly and tell them, would it be possible to include a customisable feature for notifications sounds. They then may implement it into a future update Changing notification sounds :).
