Historically, when I received an junk email that I wanted to immediately
delete, I would hold down the shift key and hit the delete sign on the Outlook toolbar. When I did so, a dialog box would appear to confirm that I wanted to permanently delete the item. When the dialog box appeared, it was accompanied by a sound. This morning for the first time, the sound no longer plays. I have tried re-booting, to no avail. How do I turn this sound back on? |

Control Panel, Sounds, select sound for emptying the recycle bin. This
usually only works for direct emptying, not shift delete. Test it by emptying the bin yourself.

Forgot tp mention that sounds don't work for Outlook deleted items. Outlook
does not use the Recycle Bin. What you delete in OL does not go to the bin.

Thanks for your response Mary. Your second response is on target. I am only
referring to the deletion of items within OL. Do you know how to turn that sound back on? "Mary" wrote: Forgot tp mention that sounds don't work for Outlook deleted items.

Thanks for figuring this out. How do I find Office Sounds? I am using Office 2007 on a Vista machine.
