  3. No Audio Output Device is Installed

    Hi,

    You will need to select Windows 8 from the drop down list while installing the driver in compatibility mode.

    I would suggest you to try setting the speaker as default audio output by following the steps below and check if it helps.

    1. Right click on the sound icon on the right bottom corner of the taskbar.

    2. Select "playback devices".

    3. If "speaker" is not set as the default device, highlight it and click "set as default".

    5. Save the changes.

    Let us know the result.

    No Audio Output device is installed - Windows 10 - Microsoft Community.

    The problem is the Win10 machine suddenly show "No Audio Output Devices in installed".

    I followed your information regarding to these issues, but no any results. I tried troubleshooter. I did not find any issue.

    I did uninstall / reinstall audio drivers, download and installed latest Intel drivers, but in Device Manager, all audio devices reported working.

    No available devices listed under SOUND. Sound there is no device listed.

    The issue is not in audio driver since audio show fine in Device Manager, but not in Sound setting.

    I would ask Carlo TJ if can have a suggestion for me.

    ‘System Manufacturer HP Laptop 14-ck0xxx,

    Type: x64-based PC,

    System SKU: 4XW63EA#ABU,

    OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19044 Build 19044’

    Maybe you can find some a suggestion for my model, please?

    Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
