Windows 10: HOW DO I FIX THE ISSUE NO AUDIO DEVICE INSTALLED?

Hi everyone..I have an issue with my Laptop HP..I lost all sound all of a sudden. And towards the sound icone it says No audio device installed. I already downloaded a driver Realtek audio for the HP model I am using but it still not working.

:)

 

No audio device is installed (How to fix?)

Since you uninstalled the Intel Display audio and you no longer have audio, that suggests you are using HDMI (??) If this is the case then the Realtek is not being used and not causing your problem.

First step as mentioned is to reinstall the Intel Display Audio.

  Device Manager.
• Select Scan for hardware changes to reinstall the device driver, or download and install the latest version from the manufacturer’s website.
