Startup Sound Changer did NOT work on my Windows 7 Professional. Instead of playing the new .wav file that I selected, nothing played when startup took place.
It’s me again. I tried installing Startup Sound Changer today on my Windows 7 Professional and it worked correctly. Still don’t know what went wrong back in May.
