I hate Windows 10. (Please help me.)
Cornelius:
Last time I had this kind of issue, removing the update, and waiting for the next did help.
hedgie:
Aah, so Windows does snapshots now. Good to know.
cybersmurf:
You could check whether the audio device has been deactivated, needs a driver update, or has been set to HDMI audio output (typically more of a desktop problem than laptop).

Windows has had Restore Points since, like, forever now, but ("easily") uninstallable updates / rollbacks since ... at least Windows 7?
The audio portion is screwy as hell for me. I use a Creative sound card, an like every other major update I have to change my default audio device. My guess is: integrated audio / HDMI audio usually works by default on Windows, and therefore my sound card only gets found after the successful update. And it's annyoing having to find out what's wrong and remembering you just did one of the biannual updates.

I've had similar "fun" with Nvidia drivers on rolling Linux releases. At least a couple of times, I'd have to roll back to a previous snapshot and wait a month or so for the proprietary driver to catch up with the kernel version. Oddly enough, my Soundblaster card always worked out of the box.
Thrillho:
So according to the settings I can find on my laptop, I do not have any audio device or any microphone.
Except if I go to system settings, where it claims I have the most up-to-date drivers.
Guess I'll go and try to roll back the Windows update.
