restore sound when mail item is permanently deleted

[chiefjay]

I have been using Office 2007 for about a year, and this morning something
changed. Historically, when I would designate a mail item for permanent
deletion (by hitting shift and delete at the same time), a dialog box would
pop up asking me if I was sure that I wanted that item to be permanently
deleted. When the dialog box appeared, a sound was made simultaneously. (I
believe that if I clicked yes to the question in the dialog box, another
sound was made.) Today, for no apparent reason, there are no sounds made.
I opened Control Panel and selected "sounds" to see if Outlook was among
the programs listed where certain actions within a program could be
accentuated with sounds, but i see that Outlook is not listed.
Does anyone know how to restore my sounds?

Not an Outlook issue. The sound is being made by Windows at a certain event
like a warning or information dialog box.

I know that y'all are compartmentalized there at microsoft, but I would have
appreciated it if you could have told me what fix I need to make within
Windows to solve my problem rather than just deflect the question.

I don't work for Microsoft. This is an end-user to end-user newsgroup. There
are also several for your Windows version. I would recommend you ask there.
You can try resetting your Windows sounds scheme back to default. If that
doesn't work, ask in the Windows newsgroup of your version.
