    Hi,Yesterday my PC Windows 10 Pro installed Windows Update KB5003173, and since then the sound is no longer working.The Windows Audio service was no longer running, but I fixed that by logging on the Local System account, but still no sound, either through bluetooth headphones, wired headphones or built-in audio.All drivers are up to date, sound settings are normal, just no audioThere are also currently several updates downloading but stuck at 0% :Intel - net - 19.51.35.2Intel Corporation - Bluetooth - 20.100.7.1Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. - System - 8/29/2017 12:00:00 AM - 2.0.1.0Adva
