    Changing sounds


    I have a W10 Pc, on a network with my wife's W10 laptop. She has the default 'chimes' for her email notification, and I changed mine to rings so that they are different.

    Periodically, mine will revert to the default chimes, and occasionally they swap round so we have each others sound.

    How do I fix the sound so that it stays there? Not a major fault, but annoying that I have to keep going back to control panel to change it.

    Thanks for looking.

    Thank you for your help. That may well work, but I am not that technical, in that I can't find .wav files . Your help is appreciated.
