    How do i get my volume mixer to be on my left monitor instead of my main.


    MY main is hidden by a game if i play. So i have to open taskbar settings to get the taskbar to show then i can adjust the volume what a pain. How do i move it to my other monitor? Upgraded to W11 and already don't like it. This is objectively worse for me and not just needing to adjust.

    :)

    Is it possible to open the volume mixer instead of volume control


    Hello, Ten Forums!

    I was wondering whether it were possible to open the volume mixer instead of the volume control when left-clicking on the volume icon in the tray. At the moment I have it set to open the old classic menu, but not the volume mixer.

    So, is it possible?

    Thanks.

    volume mixer in taskbar in WIndows 10

    Hi Caroline,



    The requirement of pinning Volume mixer to the taskbar is currently not available in Windows 10. However, you can view Volume mixer from the volume control icon located in the system tray.



    Before we assist further, I would like to ask you a few questions:


    • Are you not able to see volume icon or the volume mixer on the computer?

    • If volume icon, have you enabled the option to show in the system tray?


    If you want to view Volume mixer on the PC and have enabled volume icon on the system tray, follow the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.




    • Right click on the volume icon and select
      Open Volume Mixer       from the context menu.

    • Check if the window is accessible on the computer.


    Note: The option to pin Volume mixer to the taskbar is not currently available on the computer.



    Write to us with the status of pinning Volume mixer on taskbar in the same post for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.

    I had made a post asking about this as well, before I noticed you already had a thread, let me know if you found anything useful. I am still searching.
