  2. 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.

    Open Volume Mixer - menu bugged/edited

    Hello,

    after may update:

    "open volume mixer" has been replaced with "open sound settings" in windows 10 may 2019. I use a lot right clicking on volume icon then accessing volume mixer from top of the list menu popup, but after the
    last update this has been droped on 2nd place in menu list and it's freaking useless and annoying and useless!!! Way to FIX IT ASAP?

    Volume Mixer and File Explorer gone black cant see text in right click context menu

    Windows 10 File Explorer context menu no text

    When I right-click on a folder or file to get context menu options, the menu is very narrow, no text shown and the only icon is for menu items which have sub-items.
