    I cannot mute my OS


    I cannot mute my operating system at all. I tried a lot of options like main keyboard, apple keyboard, bluetooth keyboard, headset keyboard. I use Home version of Windows 10. I tried to uninstall the drivers for NVIDIA and sound drivers with no effect.

    :)

    Constant Muting Internal Microphone

    Hi Terri,

    If the internal microphone of your device is muting on its own, it can be due to an incompatible driver, broken system components or a software conflict has occurred. To isolate your concern, we’d like to confirm if you’ve made some
    changes and updates on your computer prior to the issue.

    Additionally, we suggest that you run the troubleshooter to fix any sound issues. Please check this
    article for the instructions and choose from the drop-down list for other troubleshooting
    steps that you can follow.

    Let us know how it goes after performing the suggested steps.

    I cannot mute my OS

    Volume Mixer not showing muted app

    The application was muted on Windows 10 with November update. Now I am using Anniversary update, on build 14393.10

    The initial step did not help make Banished show up in the Volume Mixer, nor did the article.
