Customization :: Can't Change Theme Settings For Desktop Background / Color And Sound

Navigating to Settings > Personalization > Themes > Theme Settings, we get to the Personalization window for Themes same as on Win 7. In the window it states 'Click a theme to change the desktop background, color, and sounds all at once.'
However, the icons normally at the bottom of the window to change those settings are missing. All I can do is save the theme (right click).

Customization :: How To Change Language In Start Up

I was wondering how you change the language in the start up? Like when the computer is shutting down/turning on, when you wake it up from sleep and enter a PIN, etc.
When I was picking the language in the initial start up, I accidentally chose French because the touchpad was really grippy. I've changed the language back to English for when I'm actually using the computer, but the start up and lock screens are still in French.

Customization :: Change How Many Apps Appear As MOST USED In Start

I've searched the Win10 forum, but haven't found whether it is possible to change the amount of apps that appear in the MOST USED apps in Start.
For instance, currently, my MOST USED apps show 6 apps. I would like to change it to 10.
I have the RECENTLY ADDED apps option turned off, so there should be plenty of room to show 10 MOST USED apps.
I believe previous versions of Windows allowed this choice.

Switch To Headphones Without Having To Change Control Panel Sound Settings

My default configuration is powered speakers connected via the optical output on the ZXR. So in control panel, the S/PDIF is my default device. I'd like to be able to also switch to headphones without having to change control panel sound settings. Is there a configuration that enables me to do this? It seems as if I can't have the s/pdif output my default if I want to use headphones. I'm on Windows 10 with latest software updates.I switched to using the analog outs from the ZXR and not taking advantage of the D/A converters built into my powered speakers (Vanatoo). Not the optimal situation, but it allows me to switch from speakers to headphones without having to go through Control Panel gyrations.

Customization :: Custom Sound Set Not Syncing

I like to use my own sound effects for Windows and keep them in My Documents. So I right click on the speaker icon in the bottom right hand corner and select sounds. Then find and select my own wav files for each event I'd like to use.If works for a while, but then reverts back to default.
I have another PC, a laptop, and would like to use the same sound set on that too - except the laptop does not have the same files on it. I had hoped that the laptop sound theme would sync from the desktop, but clearly not! Could the laptop not having the relevant sound files be the cause of the desktop's sound theme reverting to default?

No Sound And Start Menu

I have had windows 10 for a while now, but recently the start menu stopt working. The sound suddenly cuts out too. Also youtube videos dont load anymore.. A reboot fixes the problem, but it is pretty iritating to have to reboot your pc when you just want to watch a youtube video or any other thing for what you need sound. The problem comes back in a few hours.
When the start menu does work, it is delayed like 20 seconds.
I have scanned my pc via cmd, but it didnt find anything.

Customization :: Customize Left Side Of Start Menu - Pin To Start List?

I wanted to add some programs to the top of the left side of the start menu (free space on the screenshoot). I have read about the 'Pin to Start List' if you rightclick while holding shift.

Sound / Start Menu And Cortana Stopped Working

Now, for some odd reason, on my computer, the sound, start menu and cortana stopped working and I can't even get past the sign in menu without it telling me to sign out so they can 'fix' this problem which I've done 3 times now so I have no clue if I screwed up this computer or what.
It started with the sound first, then the start menu so I decided to restart my computer manually (which was a bad idea, apparently) and I guess Cortana just died on me when I got back on.
Also, my computer is on Windows 10 Pro Preview still.

Customization :: Desktop Won't Change

I have my desktop picture set to change every hour or so but despite trying various settings it only seems to change every month or two!
I have two monitors driven by a Nvidia Quadro 600. Neither display is changing.
Also, when I first setup the two monitors, the screens aver would alternate the images on the two monitors. i.e. Pjicture A on right then B on left with A still on right, then C on left with B still on right, and so on. Now A appears on right with left blank, then B on left with right blank. Not sure why it changed.
Not a vitally required fix but it would be nice if it behaved as it should!

How To Turn On Sound Windows 10

Customization :: Title Bar Won't Change?

Understand that default Title Bar in Windows 10 is white, However when I click on themes (which shows various title bar/window borders colors (or Shades) my Title Bar stays completely white.

Alongside all the personalization options, Windows 10 includes sound effects for system and apps events, such as for connecting and disconnecting peripherals, notifications, battery alerts, errors, and more.

While they can be useful, listening to the same sounds every day can quickly get annoying. However, you don't have to mute your system if you don't like them, as it's possible to customize each sound or disable the experience with just a few clicks.

In this Windows 10 guide, we'll walk you through the easy steps to customize or disable sound effects completely on your computer.

How to customize Windows 10's sound effects

1. Open Settings.
2. Click on Personalization.
3. Click on Themes.

4. Click on Sounds.

   • Quick Tip: You can also get access to these settings by right-clicking the speaker icon in the notification area and clicking Sounds.

5. In the 'Sounds' tab, you can disable system sounds completely or customize each one just the way you want:

   • Disable sound effects: Using the 'Sound Scheme' drop-down menu, select No Sounds.

   • Enable sound effects: Using the 'Sound Scheme' drop-down menu, select Windows Default.

   • Changing sound events: Under 'Program Events,' click the event you want to change, and using the drop-down menu select a sound from the list. You can even click the Test button to know exactly the sound you're selecting, and it's also possible to click the Browse button to add a custom sound as long as it's a .wav file.
6. Click Apply.
7. Click OK.

Once you've completed the steps, Windows 10 will use the new custom configuration. However, remember that when applying Windows Themes, sometimes some of them may include custom sounds that can override your settings (even re-enable sounds if you've previously disabled them), and these steps can also come in handy if you don't like the new sounds and you want to go back to the default settings.

If you're using custom sounds for a number of events, it's also a good idea to click the Save As button to create a custom sound scheme, in case settings ever change, and you want a way to re-apply you prefered configuration.

Wrapping things up

Sounds for Windows and applications events have been around for years, and if you didn't know or simply forgot about them, this guide can help you to personalize sound effects on your Windows 10 device.

While we're focusing this guide on Windows 10, you can also refer to these instructions (but using Control Panel) to change the sound effects on Windows 8.1 and Windows 7.
