Windows 10: Failing sound drivers after Windows 10 update

I am tired of every time I receive an update from Microsoft that I always have problems with parts of my system!

Windows 10 fails to update


When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.

 

Windows Updates failed to instal

I just did step one and they have just all installed.... thank you so much.... it was quite frustrating having that update window pop up every 5 minutes and failing to instal every time

Thanks mate

 

Windows 10 Creators Update took off my sound driver once more.

Hi Mirza,

It seems that this is a driver compatibility issue after installing the Creators Update. In addition to the troubleshooting that you have already done, we recommend that you run the built-in troubleshooter by following the steps below:

• On the Search bar, type Troubleshooting.
• Click Troubleshooting from the search result to open the
  Control Panel.
• Click Hardware and Sound.
• Click Playing Audio then follow the on-screen guide.

If the issue still persists, we suggest that you proceed to this support page article:
Update drivers in Windows 10 and follow the steps on how to update the drivers.
If all else fails, we suggest that you get in touch with the driver's manufacturer to clarify if they already have an updated driver that's compatible with the Windows Creators Update.

Feel free to post back and let us know the end result.

Kind regards.
