• Program volume control missing from the taskbar.

  MY VOLUMN CONTROL ICON IS MISSING FROM THE TOOLBAR. I TRIED TO CHECK THE BOX IN THE CONTROL PANEL, BUT IT'S ME GIVES AN ERROR MESSAGE "YOUR VOLUME CONTROL PROGRAM IS NOT INSTALLED" I FIXED USING XP DISCS, BUT IT IS NOT YET HERE. THIS IS PART OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM. I HAD ALSO LOST MY CALCULATOR AND GAMES. I HAVE RE-INSTALLED CALCULATOR AND ACCESSORIES SINCE THE ORIGINAL DISC GAMES ARE BACK BUT STILL NO VOLUMN CONTROL.  ANYONE KNOW WHAT THEN?

  The sndvol32.exe file is one of 3498 files that are monitored by the Windows File Protection System (if it works).

  Assuming that your volume control was previously working and you have uninstalled not really things...

  Even if you manually delete c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe, Windows File Protection should quickly and silently substitute a backup copy and put a message similar to the following in the XP system event log:

  Event type: Information

  Event source: Windows File Protection

  Date: 16/06/2010

  Time: 11:57:49

  Description:

  File replacement was attempted on the protected system file c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe. This file was restored to the original version to maintain system stability. The file version of the system file is 5.1.2600.0.

  See the date and time of this event?  I just deleted my file sndvol32.exe moments, and it is replaced almost instantly (no necessary CD in XP), so so he could go "missing" in the c:\windows\system32 folder and it must be replaced would require an effort unless something is wrong (which it probably is).  You can only delete even on purpose.

  Calc.exe is similarly - it requires some effort or other malfunction so he could come in fact really missing which means that something is not somewhere - if it worked before.

  Why don't search you your system for the file and see if it is in c:\windows\system32 or not.  If it's not and it worked before, you have another problem or something is wrong.

  Before you try to replace the file that should never be missed in the first place, you must first of all decent scanner for malware (since this problem with the sound control panel is such a common condition of malware),then when the scans are complete and clean, difficulty of problems.

  Do a few scans for malware, then when it's over difficult problems:

  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:

  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/

  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

• my sound icon is missing from the taskbar. How can I get that back

  I let someone use my computer and now my sound has diappeared from my taskbar icon.  How can I restore it?

  Control Panel > sounds etc. > make sure 'Place icon in taskbar/Systray' (or similar) is checked. If it is already so the next step is:

  Right click on desktop > Explorer > tools > file options > view > make sure that "Show the hidden files and folders" is checked > in the left pane of the Explorer, go to the c:\windows\system32\dllcache and locate the sndvol23.exe file > copy then paste it here to the c:\windows\system32 folder, overwriting the existing one if asked.

  If you do not ddlcache, you will need to get out of your XP CD and put it in your car without that it doesn't start.

  Start > run > type msconfig.exe > hit enter or click on OK > click on extract a file > then fill as follows / top box - sndvol32.exe > middle box - click on the arrow and select your CD/DVD drive > lower box - c:\windows\system32 > extract > crush if requested, then OK your way back. > re-boot.

  See you soon,.

• My volume control is missing from the taskbar.

  Even if I had the volume control on the taskbar before, I get the message under sound & audio in the control panel volume control has not been installed and that I should go to add/remove program to install. How do I do that?

  Do you mean you see a message like this:

  Windows cannot display the control of volume on the taskbar because the Volume control program has not been installed. To install it use Add/Remove programs in Control Panel.

  This means that your system is currently or has been infected with malicious software and your antivirus/antimalware unspecified program quarantined (actually deleted) the following file (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive):

  c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe

  That part is usually easy to solve if by simply replacing the file and replace the file will do nothing to relieve your system of malware infections, but we don't know anything about your system.

  I'll take a guess and think that you are running a version of XP with Service Pack 3 and you have no genuine XP bootable installation CD.

  I downloaded a copy of the file for XP Service Pack 3 on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

  You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these two folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

  c:\Windows\System32
  c:\Windows\System32\dllcache (this is where XP keeps backups of important files).

  Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace the existing files.

  Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

  http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

  When you see the files available for download, you will not see the extension of file (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

  You have to put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

  That may not solve all your problems, but at least you will be spending this part and we can then fix the rest.

  I hope you're curious to know how it happened, so answer these questions the best you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

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

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  Finally, no matter what you use for malware protection, I would follow with this:

  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.
