sound recorder gone?
Posted by RustyM on October 17th, 2005



Hi, have windows XP home. I cant find the location of that sound recorder
under 'accessories'. At my other pc, it is under accessories>entertainment
(I think). But not at this pc. I can see the narrorator and other media
players. any ideas how to place it back there and first of all, find it?

Thanks you-! ! ! !

What happens if you press Start, click run, and put this in without the
quotes? "sndrec32.exe"

thanks Galen! ! I had a feeling that there was something that I could place
in 'run' & find. However, how can I get it to get back in the accessories
place where I can easily find it?Also, if I clean out my RUN entries, i may
not remember this thing (sndrec32.exe) to type. thank you

WELL, I figured out how to place it in the correct area. guess I have to
work on a few things too by myself, especially when it is so simple as this
was. thanks for your help.

Not a problem. If you right click and drag something when you release the
right click button you'll be given an option to place a shortcut there. Just
a handy trick of the trade you might find useful sometime in the future.
