How do I change the default ringtone in Skype?

In some old versions I was able to replace the sound files in the /usr/share/skype/sounds/

Now the Skype folder [on my system] is /usr/share/skypeforlinux/, but I can not find any sound files there!

They are not in the /usr/share/sounds/, either

The default file was named CallRingingIn.wav

My system is Linux Mint

The default ringtone is nerve-wrecking and soul-killing

Thanks!

Skype for Linux as of September 2023 is an Electron based application which has all the resources built-in. It seems like the only way to change its sounds is the application options. If it has none, it's unlikely you could do anything.
