Windows 10: No Audio devices detected after update (Win 10 Pro - build 1903)

Hi everyone,

After surfing through the community and trying almost everything that was said on here, I decided to finally ask for help, because this bug cost me more than enough time to solve it.

So, as the title says, after installing the update for Win 10 Pro - 1903 OS build 18362.449, all of my audio devices, and my WebCam on my Asus laptop no longer work and are not recognized in the Sound settings menu. The Audio troubleshotter can't find anything and only recommends a restart and a driver re-installation - which I already did several times, and the only feedback I get from the Device Manager is: "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)"

Devices that do not work:

• USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam
• GAMDAIS USB Audio Device (headset)
• Intel Display Audio
• Microsoft Streaming Clock Proxy/Quality Manager Proxy/Service Proxy/Sink-to-sink Converter
• Microsoft Trusted Audio Drivers
• Realter HD Audio

I tried clearing settings, reinstalling drivers for Realtek, Intel and my headset, restarting.

What else am I missing?

:)

 

Win 10 Pro Clients offline after build 1903 update in Win 2016 Server build 1607

Thanks in advance for suggestions.



Yesterday I updated 2 of my 3 laptops to Win 10 Pro build 1903. Since then my Win 2016 essential server (build 1607) is showing both laptops offline, so not getting backed up.



Both laptops are definitely online. They can access the server fine, even the Windows Connector is showing as connected to the server and can open the Server Dashboard.



The third laptop (still on Win 10 Pro build 1809) is showing online and is being backed up.



I feel this is very much a windows software issue, but in case the hardware is:



3 x Dell XPS laptops (models 9380, 9350 and 9365)

1 x HP Gen 8 Microserver.



All up to date with all hardware and software patches, except the Dell XPS 6365, which hasn't had Win 10 Pro 1903 yet.
