    Audio Service Not Responding


    Hi recently the audio in my laptop, which runs Windows 10, completely stopped working. The troubleshooting has told me the audio service isn't responding. So I opened the services app and it was stopped. When I started the audio services however the audio still didn't work. The troubleshooting still says Audio Service isn't responding even Audio Service is running. I have tried reinstalling my audio driver but that hasn't worked either. Please help me try to fix this since I've tried every method so far.

    :)

    Audio service not responding

    Hello,

    The audio on my computer isn't working. I've run Troubleshooter and this is what comes up:

    Audio services not responding Not fixed

    One or more audio service isn't running Completed

    Both the Windows audio and Windows Audio End Point Builder services

    must be running or audio to work correctly. At least one of these services isn't

    running.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Elda

  3. Audio Services are not running / responding.

    Charlie,

    The Audio services not responding problem is very likely due to an outdated, corrupted or incompatible audio driver on your Windows. I'd like to ask, what do you mean by "to
    boot in safe mode and or clean boot / wipe the system and that wouldn't be possible in my current situation"? Are you connected via domain server? Are you getting any error messages when you try to boot into safe mode and perform a clean boot?

    In the meantime, I suggest that you follow these steps:

    Step # 1: Restart your audio services.

    1. Press Windows key + R and then type services.msc and click OK.
    2. Find and right-click on "Windows Audio", then click Restart.
    3. Right-click on Windows Audio one more time, this time click Properties.
    4. Set the Startup type to Automatic. Click Apply > OK.
    5. Do the same thing to "Windows Audio Endpoint Builder".
    Note: If the Restart option grayed out, your Windows Audio Endpoint Builder service is not running, click Start instead.

    Step # 2: Uninstall the audio driver in the Device Manager. Open Device Manager> Sound, video and game controllers> Right click the driver> Properties> Driver tab> Uninstall Device> Restart
    your PC, and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Note: If the same issue persists after reinstalling the driver, please contact the audio card manufacturer's website and find and download the correct drivers for your device. Then install it on your computer manually.
