This article was previously published under Q89957

SUMMARY

Windows Sound System Sound Finder ignores the working directory specified in the Program Manager Program Item Properties dialog box for Sound Finder.

MORE INFORMATION

Because Sound Finder is intended to be used to browse across an entire hard disk or even a network, it maintains its own initial directory setting in the [SNDFINDER] section of the SNDSYS.INI file. To change this setting, open the SNDSYS.INI file using Windows Notepad, set the StartDirectory= line to the default drive and directory of your choice, and save the file. Sound Finder will now use that directory as its initial directory to browse.
