What on earth are you talking about and what does this have to do with writing code?

Easy big fella...the "ABOUT" on the program suggested this site. I thought maybe the coder could assist me as an end user. "Classic Volume Control restores the classic volume mixer on Windows 11, with the tray icon and interactive sound volume indication. This software contains portions of code based on the CoreAudioAPI project, Copyright (c) 2007-2010 Ray Molenkamp. See more details on http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vista/CoreAudio.aspx" I guess I was mistaken.

Well, that's a bit of a problem as articles are supported by the people who write them, not the entire site in general. What you did was post a question in the hope that the author of the article (which was deleted almost 10 years ago!) comes by, stumbles on the question, and realizes it is for them.

Normally I would say post your question in the forum at the bottom of the article, but that article and forum doesn't exist anymore.

I'll give it a go. Thank you, OG, for not making me feel like I was from Mars asking this question (like others did)!

You're welcome!
But in future, try to use the "Have a Question or Comment" link instead of posting a solution. Solutions send an email to the question author only - a comment emails the person you wan to reply to. :D

:laugh: If you want to reply to an existing comment, you need to use the "Reply" button - again, it's all about sending emails to the right person.

The article you reference was deleted in 2014, along with all his other material - I have no idea why, but the author's participation with the site stopped at the same time so it's likely that the two were connected. I can still access the text and downloads if that helps - I'll add the download links here so you may be able to grab them if needed:

I haven't opened either archive (I never had Vista for all the usual excellent reasons and doubt that this would work too well on Win 11!)
