Need to restore "Windows Notify.wav"

I need assistance to restore its "Windows Notify.wav" file which is supposed to play when I receive a new e-mail message.

I first had trouble with this noise when Microsoft Office Outlook, my email client program, sounded the file "Windows Ding.wav" instead of "Notify.wav of Windows."

When I then tried to play "Windows Notify.wav" in Windows Media Player, I got told '... The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. »

Download, installation, performance and trying to play this file in VLC Media Player, I was THEN told that the player had "no decoder module adapted: VLC does not support the audio or video format"undf".» Unfortunately it is impossible for you to solve this problem. »

FURTHER research, I discovered that only cold VLC describe as the "audio or video format"undf"" means not "defined".

Of course, THIS means I must now restore the file "Windows Notify.wav" to its former glory. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can do this?

Thank you for any assistance you can give me in this case.

    Hey lacz.wadeyahoo.com

    what you want to do depends on how vista has been installed

    If it is pre-installed you'll have a recovery partition

    try pressing F10 or F11 or Alt + F10, 0 at startup to start the recovery process

    to know the correct key sequence to start the recovery process to read any manual that came with your computer or contact the manufacturer

    or for any easy way to contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send a set of vista recovery disc

    they do it for a nominal cost

  • in Windows 7, the past his off times randomly notify.wav

    I recently bought a new motherboard, so I reinstalled Win 7 64 bit SP1. I installed all critics optionally Win updates and except language packs. Any motherboard current CPU and GPU drivers are installed from their respective sites. I started to re - install the software I used before without a problem. About a day in the installation of programs the its generic notify.wav began to go from time to time. Maybe once every two hours or more. It is not "Windows Notify.wav" but "notify.wav" now days later, it happens again.

    I've read a few threads that I could find on what people seem to have solved in different ways and it was mainly related to the installation of a third-party program that caused the notification. I used CCleaner to clean all residual files from facilities. I still get the sound of notifiy.wav will at random times.

    I decided to try just remove notify.wav C:\Windows\Media

    When I tried, first of all, I get "you need to provide administrator permission to move this file."

    After clicking on continue I get

    'You need permission from TrustedInstaller to edit this file.

    If I click on try again, she persists with this message. So I can't remove it because of TrustedInstaller. This confirms a little what others say is a problem with the installation of other programs. But the sound notify.wav seems to turn off randomly... all while browsing the web, watch a video in media player or vlc, and there is no popup or a warning message that accompanies the sound.

    Do you know why this is happening and hwo to stop it.

    Success!

    I found what was the sound notification going off, with a huge thank you to John in winhelponline. It involves the use of Process Monitor to monitor the programs that might be using the sound notify.wav or any sound that you specify in the filter. His instructions are here:

    http://www.Winhelponline.com/blog/find-application-making-sounds-in-background/

    It connects a download Process Monitor in his explanation, but in case you miss it, it's here:

    https://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals

    In my case it was a simple calendar program I installed (iCalendar) right after you have installed Windows. He missed to install to give notifications of time schedules using notify.wav as sound, without further notice visible. Crazy boring.

    in any case, John method above can be used by those who are trying to find the source of any random its going in Windows.

    Recently, I experienced some problems with Windows Defender.  I tried to do a system restore, but I couldn't go back enough before to the problem.  They then advised me through reading the forums and questioning serveral here my other option was to do a re-installation of complete system for Windows Vista.  I have no problem with that, I don't have a CD for it and no one I know is.  My laptop is a Dell and it received through College I was dating after graduation.   Probably a year ago my hard drive failed.  I had the hard drive replaced and the program that was then installed on my computer Windows Vista (32 bit), which worked well and has been great so far.  The Dell initially had Windows XP home edition SP2 it is and reinstall drive only I.  The disc indicates specifically that it is not for resettlement programs or drivers...

  • Satellite A200-17O - how to restore Windows to the factory settings?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200-17O. I want to restore Windows Vista to factory settings, I did not need to backup all the files. I don't have the product recovery CD. When I press F8 and click on the "Repair" option, it will give me all the options, but when I click on the option to completely recover the system (the one on the bottom), it will simply open a window telling me to back up my data, then theres a button 'OK', and when I click that, the window will simply close and return to the menu options. All I want is to return Vista to factory settings.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    Yes, normally you can restore your computer laptop initial configuration using disk HARD recovery option. Therefore, you must follow the instructions here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

    If it doesn't work, you need to use the Toshiba recovery disc. If your computer laptop didn t come with such a recovery disk you create yourself using recovery preinstalled creator tool. This is mentioned in your user manual, have you checked it?

    Therefore, you need a few blank DVDs. I recommend the DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. Many users here have a good experience with these brands.

    If you have any other questions, just after again! ;)

    I'm having problems to restore Windows XP with service 3, whenever I go to the station Windows, Windows tells me that nothing has changed. Can someone help me with this problem

    Unfortunately, the implementation of MS Answers forums does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything on your system.

    Not knowing the basic informations of a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues, but that's the way they choose to turn things around here.

    Thank you owners MS Answers, continue to make solving simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    What is your system brand and model?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE), McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, Comodo, PC Tools, etc.

    What is the issue that you are experiencing that you think that the system restore will be remedied (or you are just convenient)?  Remember that the system restore is not a time machine.

    Have you ever used the system restore to restore your system in the past?

    Describe exactly what happens when you try to perform a system restore and the error messages you see which indicates that it does not work (some thing besides 'it does not work").

    Some tools Anti Virus 'protect' your system so that they will not allow a restore of the system work properly.

    For example, if you use Norton/Symantec products, you will see a message like this:

    Restoration incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored...

    It is also a popular Symantec problem (well, I'll be polite and call an "undocumented feature"...), they wrote an article about it:

    https://support.Norton.com/SP/en/us/home/current/solutions/v51118464_EndUserProfile_en_us?product=home&version=1

    According to what you use for malware protection, you may need to disable the product temporarily, do the system restore and then turn the products light up again when the system restore is complete.

    Sometimes you need start your system in Mode safe and so that your protection programs are not running, and then do the system restore.  Tips from Microsoft in some of their articles that if the system restore does not restore your computer, start in Safe Mode, and then run the system restore.  It works for some configurations.

    Note that if you do a Safe Mode system restore, you will not be able to cancel it and there is no option on the System Restore screen for "Undo my last restoration" as you would if you were to restore your system from a normal startup.

    Give these ideas some consideration if they apply to you.

    Sometimes malicious will afflict your system restore to prevent you to find and remove malware.  It would much rather you trick into thinking that you need to repair or reinstall your XP when it is not necessary.

    No matter what you use for protection against malware, I do so and then only begin to solve any problems:

    Download, install, update, and make at least a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    It can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    The scans by operating clean, reboot, test and we can fix any other issues.

    System Restore is sometimes so afflicted or Restore Points are suspicious, the best solution is to reinstall your system restore.  This will remove the old Restore Points, but sometimes it's the only way to fix a broken system restore.  You don't have to reinstall XP, only the part of system restore.

    That can leave you with your problem of unspecified origin that you hope the system restore will fix (using a system restore is usually not equivalent to fixing the problem though).

  • 2000 laptop 365DX: need to restore but have a restore partition point or recovery.

    Hi guys. I have a laptop HP 2000-365DX with Windows 7 Home Premium.   Its so crowded and I need to restore back to original settings.  I had installed Ubuntu (partitioned) all the time and has been very stupid, because I deleted my partition recovery HP tools.  Now, I searched here on HP.com to order a recovery disc and apparently I can't find one for my specific model.  So what I have done is downloaded a file .iso Windows 7 Home Premium (with a good soul on these forums) and I need to download all the drivers for my laptop as well but HP is having some problems now so I can't download them (which is fine that I'm in no hurry).  So, that's all as far as my knowledge goes.  I have my Win7 disc and hopefully soon have my drivers disk.  What I do not know how, it's clear my computer to start from zero Setup Win7 again then all my drivers.  I read that DBAN (Darik Boot and Nuke) erases your hard drive clean, but that seems very extreme.  Looks like I would use to wipe my drive hard if I had to sell my laptop or to erase the evidence, but if that's my solution I'm cool with that.  So, really, I'm wandering what I should do now.  And I really re - install my drivers as well?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello

    You can delete all existing partitions on the HARD disk during installation, as follows.

    Start the installation.

    When you get to the screen 'What type on installation', choose the custom (Advanced) option, and then click drive options (Advanced).

    Here you can delete all existing partitions at a time by clicking on the partition to highlight it and then click Remove.

    A when you're finished, you'll have just one entry named not 'allocated space' - just proceed with the installation.

    Kind regards

  • Could not restore Windows 7 after Windows 8 Preview - TM2 version have restore DVD, always fails.

    Hello!  I'm about out of ideas on how to resolve this, so I'll do a summary of what I changed with the machine and then further troubleshooting details on.  The hp touchsmart PC portable individual I is a TM2-1079 cl, product number: WA812UA #ABA.  I got it for the length of 2012, I bought it used another person about 1 year ago now specifically to play with Windows 8, before his release.  Regarding materials real age, I can tell from the warranty information that it was made at the end of 2009, he stated the warranty period was from January 2010 to January 2011.

    Okay, so my story with the OS change goes:
    -> Bought this TM2 in early 2012, ran the recovery partition to wipe it clean from the previous use of owners and he went perfectly well, then a Windows 7 clean installation as if it were new.  I had also made use of an Acronis True Image 2010 boot disk to a hard disk image of the three than other recovery partitions (although I do not understand the freshly installed windows partition 7, thought it wouldn't matter if the recovery could do it's thing right?)
    -> A few days later, I loaded the second of the three Preview versions for Windows 8 above (Customer Preview build I think).   Everything worked well and it doubles starting between the two without problem, as far as I know, the only real made amounted to convert the main partition that Windows 7 was installed on an extended partition and splitting of existing Windows 7 partition everything also 50-50 indoor and extended partition.  She had also replaced the Boot Manager / bootloader which was there before, but once again not surprised.
    -> When the build of the Preview version was released over the summer I did an update from inside windows 8 and all seemed well again.  Change between builds two preview has developed a problem where I could not stop windows 8 without a handful of error boxes poping up to the top, but I'm pretty sure that was unrelated.
    --> More recently about time thanksgiving, I decided to give the laptop to a family member with an archiac office who has had problems and updated factor of old general who in fact does not.   This person is quite unfavorable for change so that everything "Win8-vs-what people are used" comes into play.   I decided to erase the TM2 clean to the BONE it comes with.    Here's where I'm stuck now:

    => Before doing anything I did a just incase, glad I did another true picture of the HARD drive.
    => I have tried F11 to load the recovery partition to see that, because of the bootloader be tampered with by Windows 8 it is really not to the HP recovery partition more while it is still on the hard drive.
    => Captures the image of hard drive since the beginning of the year with the partition recovery on it until windows 8 hit the machine, cleaned the hard drive completely, restored the disk image.   I could now enter HP recovery fine but...
    => I got a dialogue mistake right off the bat, saying that the recovery partition could not install and insert me CD 1 of recovery of education software.  Well I never did the dvd myself with the single use burning star when it worked so that is out and I did not buy the disks on the HP support site.   At this point I'm stumped, but why the recovery partition cannot install despite the computer load up in recovering very well.  For example, command prompt in the Windows PE environment is functional and all files seem to be present.   Maybe some checks as the recovery partition is not pirated could have been triggered by hard drive imaging, I'm really not sure?
    => I did then used the image of HARD drive, I had just created before trying it and restored the other copy of the reader (bootloader altered Win8, Win8 version preview, win7, the inaccessible and all recovery partition).   Windows 7 and 8 - RP can still start.   Google a bit on the recovery partition key (F11) is dirtied by Windows 8 and came to find that I had to only salvage value as the partition "Active" so he can start.  Sure, I have to start but I'm running into the same issue, where the real recovery partition loads but now refuses to start the process of restoring without HP dvd.  Because I know that for some it worked months ago I guess that once more, because I ended up restoring this version of the recovery partition it may also declared himself tampered with... great.
    -Online planned what to do a little and then finally just ordered the DVD from HP in December, I had specifically recovery DVD for my model and they weren't from HP directly, not second hand on ebay or another person.  Wasn't really that bad, $16, very reasonable price.  Should be just, legit OEM DVD to use?  Nope...
    => Came the DVD.  Two main recovery disks and a third for applications and drivers.   Start with disk one and he says is formatting the drive how he wants (good, I love it so far), copy all the content of the three disks on the hard drive and starts his reboot and install cycle.    Restarts a handful of times, you can tell that well after the copy of the content of the any disk and installing windows.  You see the logo Windows 7 boot a few times and even the standard background 'prepare your things' which is similar to the Windows 7 login screen.  The screen becomes certainly as far as the driver proper (and others I guess at that time here) such as changes in native resolution for LCD of the TM2 towards the end.
    -Online all of a sudden on the 3rd or 4th (I think) reboot of windows setup begins for a while then said stop, it restarts and it is back in Windows PE installation of recovery again (this time from the hard drive, not the DVD) and says that it has failed to restore and offers to start over from the beginning.

    This is where I am stuck.  The recovery Partition died on me post-Windows 8 and the official HP recovery DVD fail to me (and curiously they you apparently miss you in all stages of restoration windows 7, well after the DVD themselves are are most read from).

    > Question 1: is the "self-destruct" HP recovery partition if he gets imaged hard drive imaging software and restored?  I can confirm mine worked fine and then died after after crossing Acronis True Image.  Another possibility is that perhaps there is a certain ID or the tattoo of the hard disk or specific partitions that was lost when Windows 8 put his recent bootloader into the machine or lost of Acronis?  It's always the hdd oem supplied with the computer, it has not been turned out.
    > Question 2: are there known issues with the official recovery of Windows 7 DVD s for an end TM2 2009 1079 cl?  I also know the recovery of Cyberlink software fix / preinstall disc and tried this with results that were not different in without it.  That said, my machine has the version of the recovery software Cyberlink, I read something as software from 3 different companies for recovery depending on the period of time the laptop was manufactured and sold.

    > Question 3: clearly asked, what now?  Another thing to try or I have to go find a disc of windows 7 RTM and snatch all the zippers of all pilot?  (Quite hoping to avoid this, I'm actually curious enough to really understand what happened here and that will work he answered nothing.)  hehe).

    Perhaps of things this way: some research led me to believe have the WLAN switch off at the beginning of the recovery causes the driver to flip out (and win7 seems indeed dropping dead during the last steps of the installation of the driver) however it is not possible it seems to activate the wireless card 'on' before that point.  Switch do even when active state.   As I have already mentioned the recovery of Cyberlink software patch has no effect on things.   No parts have never been amended in this machine, the original hard drive, the wireless network card, modules, ram ect.   I doubt that the motherboard bios / firmware has never been States machinery, update is revision F.02.

    I have at my disposal:
    Much time, in fact, hense why I really want to know what has happened and do not use the disc of Win7 RTM.
    * disk hard recovery HP before addressed Win8 image machine.

    * disk hard recovery image after Win8 and a little bug, but still bootable Win8-RP.
    * The correct recovery DVD for my laptop HP-directed, ordered recently (December 2012).
    * Enough confidence to play with score editing tools would it be a suggestion, never really used much outside of gparted on discs live linux however.  In view of the current state of the machine there is nothing to lose much more than to risk.

    Sorry for the wall of text!  I love being very detailed!

    I actually had, pretty much on a whim of 'eh, might as well try it' too!

    So I told him earlier that it seemed obvious that most of the recovery completed well, something just kept arye until reset all cycles of the overall configuration process.   Seemed as if drivers were causing a problem because the display driver had obviously just finished installing a few moments before the final restart dead-end.  There was a lot of forum discussions there on different models of HP laptops, who need the wireless card to be placed in 'market' or restore might fail completely, I tried but the TM2 does not really allow you to change the WLAN State of 'off' when the operating system has already recognized (as in bios menus and windows install ", it stays just off even if you hit the switch).

    I decided to try pulling the mini-pcie card out of the machine completely and from configuration on and... It worked!  I had throughout a fresh Windows 7 and he even recreated my recovery partition correctly!

    Check in the C:\SwSetup\ directory after the installation was made, I found all the other drivers and a folder called 'WLAN', which was empty.   I guess that means if recovery is not material, then they choose even not copy the data to a certain device driver.   Because it was not present, everything that's wrong with installing drivers during recovery wireless cards never crashed the recovery all!

    I wonder if there isn't something wrong with the wireless card in my TM2 in all honesty.  I had a problem with it along since I got a year ago in this radius of reception was terrible and if I went that areas of the room of the wifi point he was likely to win.   Having said that it worked then I ignored it before.   Maybe the card is gone belly up and install recovery is not just installation to recognize errors in nonlethal pilot since the WIFI network?  He would fit with other peoples problems when WLAN is turned off as well at least.

    As a separate note, since the new year I've updated my personal machine (a HP DV6T) for one SSD and (without erasing my old HDD), I decided to try acronis imagery on this cover of machines and other partitions under Windows 7 itself for the SSD.   Of course, the same question appeared, recovery would not launch without the DVD.   Apparently Acronis True Image just cannot successfully restore HP to an image of partition recovery.   I don't pretend to know why but while the real partiton returns through restoration and environmental WinPE is running the effective recovery certainly does not aftering through an image .tib in the case of two separate HP machines.

    ---

    (For googlers who think so), these are two of the three questions, which I came across while doing this resolved and everything that I'm going to worry.

    > Windows 8 Preview mess with bootloaders, breaks recovery, I didn't figure out how to restore it.
    > Do not rely on an image of hard disk from the recovery partition, even if you can restore the partition and it opens to black recovery menu window it can still fail and ask the recovery dvd.  The recovery partition disk imaging is risky!

    > If your HP recovery (partition or dvd, or another) dies near the end of all this and turning on/off WLAN is not helping, try ripping off the mini-pcie for the restore time card and then reinsert once you return to an operating system clean, everything worked for me!  For reference, I don't know what model of wlan card that is exactly, but it's a Broadcom 802.11n adapter (HP alternative number? Not sure) SPS: 593837-001.  The driver will not be C:\SwSetup\ after the installation as the dvd won't copy out but plug in ethernet, windows update finds it easy.
