Windows 10: My earphones and and speakers work at the same time Please help!

I've been having this problem for about a week, but my sound from my earphones completely stopped working and I cant find anywhere to fix it. For the most part, my headphone jack isn't detecting any of the earphones I put in it. First, I've tried updating my Realtek Audio drivers and even reinstalling the drivers, but it does not help. I even attempt to open the audio manager, but it refuse to open, even as administrator. Next, I tried opening my sound settings to see if my headphones are disabled, but nothing else popped up. Then, I tried rolling back my systems via system restore; then the worst thing happened. My computer keep restarting with auto-repair screens, so I have no other option but to factory reset my computer. Fortunately, my earphones managed to work again but now the speakers managed to work as well instead of being disabled. So I need help fixing this.

Windows 10: No Sound coming out of earphones (only speakers work)

It's a laptop (dual booting Win10[recently upgraded from win7 64bit] and Elementary OS Freya)

It's nothing to do with hardware issues

Earphones worked fine on my Elementary OS so my audio jack is definitely not broken or anything like that. Earphones work on my phone as well so i'm quite positive it's to do with windows 10 only.

No sound coming out of earphones

There's no sound coming out of the earphones, and I'm sure it's nothing to do with them because they work fine when I plug them into my phone. Also, I've tried another pair of earphones which resulted the same. However, the sound works perfectly without the earphones plugged into my laptop, the speakers are fine.

unsure if it's to do with drivers

I've tried uninstalling the Realtek HD audio drivers, reinstalling and nothing works.

However, I have Windows 10 but could only find drivers for Windows 7/8

settings

I've googled a bit and most would suggest something like checking the playback devices but the only one on my list is 'Speakers'.

Realtek detected my earphones

When I plug in my earphones, Realtek detected them and even popped up the notification saying 'you just plugged a device into the audio jack'

as shown in the picture, when i toggle my mouse onto the black circle, it clearly detected something was plugged in, but somehow audio just won't play through my earphones.

 

Earphones not working

Recently received my Windows 7 / Samsung Focus phone. All setup and syncing music and even adding NetFlix with no problems. However, when I plug in the earphones...the sound continues to come from the phone speaker. The earphones
do not have any sound output to them. I'm trying to figure out if this is a hardware issue or if there is something that I haven't found yet related to enabling the earphones.

Any Suggestions?

 

No sound coming out of earphones (ONLY speakers work)

Funny, I have the exact OPPOSITE problem right now after doing a clean install of Windows 10. No sound from laptop speakers, only head phones ...
