Re: accessible program that will allow you to restore yoursound profile

That issue might not be the same as setting volumes on a given source though, as setting the output device should be handled by windows and is kept in a different place to the settings of whicheve card or device is in use.

I used to try various utilities to try and prevent Windows loading in amuted state or with volume set to zero. Nowadays I do not bother as I routinely use a Microsoft Natural Ergononic Keyboard which have clearly tactile media keys including toglling mute status or volume up and down. Even if the computer is muted a press of the volume up key will unmute the computer. Many laptops will also have media keys which presumably perform the same function. If for whatever reason I need to adjust volumes across the programs loaded I simply press windows key and type sndvol which opens up a mixer page which does pretty much all of what is described in the third party utility programs in windos already.

Haven't even tested/tried it out, but, either way, here's the download/detail page - the second and third links below the primary headings on this page offer download of 32 bit and 64 bit versions: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/sound_volume_view.html Description SoundVolumeView is a simple tool for Windows Vista/7/8/2008/10 that displays general information and current volume level for all active sound components on your system, and allows you to mute and unmute them instantly. SoundVolumeView also allows you to save a sound profile into a file, containing the current volume level and the mute/unmute state of all sound components, as well as the default sound devices, and then later, load the same file to restore exactly the same volume levels and settings. There is also extensive command-line support, which allows you to save/load profiles, change current volume of every sound component, and mute/unmute every sound component, without displaying any user interface. System Requirements This utility works on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 2008, and Windows 10. Both 32-bit and 64-bit systems are supported. Windows XP and older systems are not supported. Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Resistance is futile, but, acceptance is versatile..."
