something i would be tempted to do here is run all your system scans including 
defrag, disk clean up, virus scans and spy ware and registration scans - this 
if nothing else will clean out any unwanted software and you never know for 
some reason this could be stoppng your volume control showing in the system 
tray.

Hi Dana,

Although some audio programs have the bad habit of tinkering with the sound 
system, indeed muting it without any warning, I don't think Jaws has anything 
to do with the speaker icon not shown in the System Tray. 

Here is another thing you may want to try: The speaker icon can be set to 
either Always show, Always hide, or Hide when inactive. Please go to your task 
bar properties, select customize notifications, arrow down to volume and set it 
for Always show.  Apply and OK. Hope this will fix the problem.

Good luck!

Adam

As I indicated in my original message, I've done all of that, and done it 
several times. If it had had the expected effect, I wouldn't have posted here, 
asking if anyone knows why it hasn't. And, as Ryand indicated in his post, at 
least one other person running XP Home seems to have had the same problem 
appear only after installing the new JAWS 6.20. So, to repeat my original 
question, does anyone here know what is going on with, apparently, the 
interaction between XP Home, JAWS 6.20, and the volume Control icon, that is 
preventing the latter from appearing in the system tray, or being read by JAWS 
6.20, if, in fact, it is there but is not being seen by JAWS?
 
Blessed Be,

Hi Dana,

Try the following:

Open your Control Panel,

Locate Sound and Audio Devices and open it,

Tab to the check box â??Place volume icon in the task barâ??, and press the 
space bar to check it.

Apply using Alt + a, and hit Enter for OK.

Close the Control Panel. Normally, the volume icon should appear in your System 
Tray. Please let us know if detailed navigation is needed.

Good luck!

Adam

Hello, 

Not sure what the problem is, however I am experiencing the same thing.  I am 
running windows xp home and jfw 6.2.  This problem just started.

On the Volume tab of the Sounds and Audio Devices dialogue of Control Panel, I 
have the check box checked to show the Volume Control icon in the system tray. 
But it does NOT appear in the system tray, even after I reboot. Does anyone 
know what might be going on here -- whether this is a Windows XP issues, a JAWS 
6.20 issues, or what? 

Thanks. 

Blessed Be, 

Dana
