This post is a resource file, if you will. This handy tool is lost in the new GUI. When I refer to it for training purposes, I tend to leave the screenshot tool in window-mode which in turn fux up my day. Here, I can link to a forum post. There are solutions to reported problems which do not involve the software supported. Users forget that. ![Audio - Volume Mixer](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/fxsound/original/2X/e/ecf9903fa6920563214ca43cdcf424468f8a7e64.png) ---

I find c:\windows\system32\sndvol.exe to be more convenient. So much so that I linked it to WINKEY+V using autohotkey. ---

Agreed. I just need a resource library. ---

One of the tweaks to Windows 11 in all of the various versions - some releases allow right click the systray and open Volume Mixer from there. I expect all versions to include this eventually. But it is the new GUI and is not laid out like any other audio tool known to exist in the physical realm.
