Recycle Bin/Can't attach sound

For some reason I have been unable to attach a sound to the empyting of the Recycle Bin. I was sure that I had previously done it in XP. I know I had been able to do it in 95 and 98.

I assign the file and it continues to revert to the XP default. I finally deleted THAT file and then re-assigned mine. Now it simply goes to NONE.

Appartently I am the only with this particular problem because I didn't have any luck on the Microsoft site.

All of the other sounds that I've attached to other "events" work just fine.

Thanks.

 

I'll let you know if it works or not. The sound problem is the only problem I've had with the Recycle Bin.

Does that mean I should still do the repair option?

Thanks for your patience.

 

Pete,

I guess I'm just too dense for this. I went to the link you provided, but when I clicked on the" replace" Recycle Bin, I got a page of garbage. At that point I didn't know what to do?

 

It should have taken you to This page where you will find a .reg file link. Download that file and then a double-click on restorerecyclebin.reg will write the contents to your registry. Nothing for you to do except the double-click and the file does it's job.

The link is on the right side, down a bit, and named Replace/Repair the Recycle Bin in Windows XP
