  1. Audio will not work, nothing has fixed the issue. Please help!


    Windows did an update (as far as I can tell), and a few days later, my audio doesn't work. The error message states "the audio service is not running." I tried to fix this via service.msc, and there was no option to "start" or "restart" the audio. It says, "windows could not start the windows audio service on local computer". I tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers via Realtek, but it says my computer, a HP laptop with Windows 10, doesn't support it. There are no viruses on my computer so I'm not sure why NOTHING is working. Everything I have tried has not worked. Please help!
