PlaySound() no longer plays any .wav files - page 2

Solved - how, I do not know.

After Win-Update and reboot all wav-files were gone, when I copied them back it worked.

if you really need to play a sound you can import this first

#import "user32.dll"
   int MessageBeep(uint uType);
#import

then you can use it like this

MessageBeep(0xFFFFFFFF);

there is some sounds you can use here (this table is from chatgpt as i don't no much of these sounds)
