Windows 10: Headphones arent detecting

I tried plugging my headphones into the headphone port, it didn't work for some reason. It showed as 'unplugged' so I went to some websites to find advice. I did troubleshooting, checking drivers and for driver updates etc. None of it worked. So I got new headphones because the old one was quite bad anyway as the microphone wouldn't work. When I got new ones I tried plugging it in, it still doesn't detect and is shown as 'unplugged'. Does anyone know why this could be happening? I'm not sure if the port is damaged because the other ports work fine. I'm also trying to show images so that its ea

My bluetooth headphones connect but they arent recognized as an audio device

Hi

Thank you for the tips, however removing the device and adding it back from bluetooth settings didnt make a difference, and when i go into sound settings my headphones arent even listed as an option even though they are connected.

I tried to add the headphones through the sound settings but it doesnt detect them

 

Headphones Not Detected

Wasn't sure what topic to put this under.

Windows 10 refuses to detect my headphones from my headset. The mic is fine. The computer even recognizes when I plug the headphones of the headset in. But it refuses to detect them. I can go into my Sound in Control Panel all day, and there will NEVER be any
headphones in that list. So, no, I cannot click headphones, just making that clear before someone suggests clicking on headphones.

How do I force Windows 10 to detect the headphones that I have plugged in, so that they will work? The jack is working fine. When I plug them in it gives me the pop-up letting me know that I plugged something into the jack. But that's the end of it. It will
not detect the headphones. Nothing comes out of them. There are no headphones in the Sound list. There is nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Why does it register something is plugged in and then refuse to detect it?

Someone please figure out why Windows 10 simply cannot detect headphones and help me fix this so I can use my headset.
