Hello all!
A quick search of the forum gave me no joy in finding some kind of tech support thread. I thought we had one but if do I don't know what it's called!
Recent updates to Windows 10 have left my laptop thinking it has no speakers or microphone. I can plug my USB mic in, and it can see that, and I can input and receive output through that, but otherwise it just thinks it has no sound.
I've tried multiple methods from Googling this. Can anybody suggest anything that has worked for them? Windows' own Wizard keeps claiming to have installed new updates and need to reboot, and then nothing changes.
I also just want to rant in passing that I am incredulous about the fact that a product as widely used as Windows can get away with it just being 'a thing' that happens sometimes that it rolls out a new updates and some users just lose all of their sound. This is something that has happened in multiple updates before. How is it still happening? How is this not something that immediately needs addressing in a matter of hours with a patch?)
Fellow mods if it turns out I missed a painfully obvious thread this could have gone in please do merge.
