    Speakers lost after latest update.


    Windows 10 1909 1836.657 I loaded the update to Win 10 from Microsoft in January 2020. All went well except my external speakers are gone. The speaker icon at the bottom of the home page indicates "No AUDIO Output Device is Installed". All connections are checked several times over. Any help recovering sound on my machine will be appreciated. The "Add New Hardware" routine will not work unless I can make it "see" the speakers. Thanks..

    :)

  2. Windows 10 computer paired w/ bluetooth speaker, but doesn't send music to speaker

    A possible solution to Bluetooth speaker playback issueSpeakers lost after latest update. :) I tried all the steps listed in several posting forums with no success. I finally found a solution after 3 hours of investigating. 1st several forums suggest updating drivers... but do not specify which drivers to update i.e. the Bluetooth device? (eg. bose audio, sony driver for sony Bluetooth headphones etc.), or the windows driver?

    *** For me the solution was updating the Bluetooth driver from LENOVO's website (the laptop/computer manufacture's website) once the driver was installed the bluetooth playback through BOSE Bluetooth audio adaptor worked perfectly.

    I understand not everyone will have a LENOVO laptop/computer however I think it is worth downloading the latest Bluetooth driver from the device you are streaming from.

    Hope this helps!
