    Most updates no longer install - tried many things. Help please!

    I've got very limited time in which the computer can be tuned up.
    The tune up may or may not fix the failure to upgrade.
    Indicate if you want to run the tune up steps.
    An alternative is to save files and reinstall Windows, drivers, and applications.

    List any installed or recently installed/uninstalled non-Microsoft:
    a) antivirus
    b) firewall
    c) drive encryption

    Good surround sound headset

    I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue After update on 08/17/2021 HUGE SOUND ISSUES :p

    Sound Issues

    Hi Junior,

    The change on the sound quality of your device after the recent update can be related to an incompatible driver. As an initial step to resolve your concern, we suggest that you update your driver by following these steps:

    • Type Device Manager in the search box.
    • Press Enter.
    • Click the drop-down arrow for Sound, video and game controllers to view the driver.
    • Right-click the installed sound driver and select Properties.
    • Click the Driver tab.
    • Select Update Driver to update your sound driver.
    • If the driver is updated, you can reinstall the existing driver by repeating steps
      1 to 5.
    • This time, select Uninstall.
    • After uninstalling the driver, restart your device to automatically reinstall the driver.

    Let us know should you need further assistance.
