K3; using QuickMix software.

[Richard Fjeld]

Sometime back, I posted about the handy software utility (QuickMix) to save the computer soundcard settings for the various operating modes, ie. psk31, rtty, sstv, voice, whatever.  It is very convenient and time saving.  

Someone answered that Windows7 doesn't let the utility change them.  I just tried it on a Win7 laptop and he is so right.  (Progress)

Has anyone found a way to do it?  I tried installing it outside of the Program directory and that didn't help.

Rich, n0ce

Between XP and Windows 7 there were some very fundamental changes in the
structure of the Windows sound management process, a lot of apps written for
XP no longer worked and the only way to get the sort of application you are
using to go again is a rewrite specifically for the new Windows 7/8 schema.

I also meant to suggest to try running the application with Administrator
privileges and in the XP compatibility mode, you never know your luck

I understand this sound card control utility works on Windows 7.  I have not tried it.

Thanks to all who contributed.  Good suggestions.  

I went to the website below, and it looks promising.  There is a mention of Vista and Windows7 administrator problems but there is a work-around.  I will try this later.

In the meantime, I played with right clicking the QuickMix icon and clicked on 'troubleshoot compatibility'. It was a bit confusing, but it eventually automatically chose Windows XP service pack 2.  It gave me an incompatible message of sorts, but ended up working.  

One thing confusing is when I right click on the Icon in the desktop, it shows an icon of a shield in front of "Run as administrator".  But in the properties/compatibility, it does not have administrator checked under Privilege Level, so  I think it will be a winner.

I'm glad to get this resolved for Windows 7 use.  (I'm leaving a couple replies for the benefit of others.) Thanks and 73,

Rich, n0ce
