Adam,

Good idea. Unfortunately, it didn't work, either.

  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

    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,

    Dana

      Hi Dana,

      Try the following:

      Open your Control Panel,

      Locate Sound and Audio Devices and open it,

      Tab to the check box âPlace 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

anyone else know anything about how to correct this.

            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,
