Windows 10: No sound after windows updates

Hello,


I´m having a lot of issues with Windows updates, to do with my sound.


Each time i update my Windows a loose the sound!


I bought this computer just a month ago. this is very upsetting. I´m a teacher and have to give online classes, and this happens all the time.


Is there a solution that will work without me having to install/uninstall drivers all the time?


best regards,


Rodrigo Nunes

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
