Win 7 built-in "Sound Recorder" doesnt work with ODP

I tried as well... no luck. Try writing to [email protected] . It might be because it lives in the System32 folder...

Is any of this info helpful? You'll need to change a few things to point to sound recorder of course, instead of control panel.

Hi Wizard1956,

It's really a quest for me!! Would you be kind enough to show me how to point to the built in win 7 Sound Recorder? With tons of thanks..

Did you try putting 

%25systemroot%25\system32\sound recorder.exe /name Microsoft.System

in the arguments?

Tks DrJBHL. Yup, tried, but still doesnt work. Btw, what am i supose to put in the Link box?

DrJBHL, Seems yours is working now... Do me a favour by pls type exactly what you've put in the Link and Arguments boxes? I may then find my way out... Many tks.

Give us a screenshot of what you've done so far... of what is working.

Please provide the complete path to your sound recorder. 

Thanks.

In the Link box, i typed : C:\Users\John\Desktop\SoundRecorder - Shortcut.lnk

(I create a shortcut on desktop)

In the %25systemroot%25\system32\sound recorder.exe /name Microsoft.System 

(I tried with space and w/o space between "sound recorder.exe"

Not work at all. Pls teach...

Hi Zubaz,

Here it is:

C:\Windows\System32\soundrecorder.exe

Try "C:\Windows\Sysnative\sound recorder.exe"

Tried. That's what i got from the pop up:

Windows cannot find 'C:\Windows\Sysnative\sound recorder.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.
