SetVol Closes/Crashes?

Every time I launch SetVol.exe it closes itself after like one second. Using Windows10.
Don't know if this is the right place to post this but i haven't found any other place to seek help. Hope someone can guide me through a fix or something. :)

Setvol is a command line program, designed to work via the command line or a batch / script file.

Press the 'Windows' and 'R' together at the same time, enter
cmd

in the window that pop-ups up, enter

c:
cd \
cd "Program Files"
cd setvol
setvol /?

and you will see how to run it.

I'm having the same issue as @cigan666 where SetVol.exe will crash after about a second.

I followed your steps but I have no folder in my Program Files called setvol. What am I supposed to do?

If you do not have the setvol program copied to a SetVol directory in c:\program files then as a first step you can do that.

i.e. with MS File explorer:
create a folder in the "C:\Program Files" directory called
SetVol

Next copy the contents of the setvol.zip file into that directory

Next follow the instructions in the post above
