Windows 10: Sound Scheme not Working

My sounds work fine in different applications and when I play them manually in my "change system sounds" but not when they open and close programs, minimize or maximaze programs or any other system sounds. I have a windows 10 laptop and when I changed my sound schemes on my Win 7 laptop they worked fine, but not on my Win 10 laptop. What seems to be my problem with the sounds?

Windows 10 custom Sound Schemes not working

I'm having the very same problem.

Method One didn't resolve the issue.

I don't know why you'd suggest Method 2. There is clearly nothing wrong with our sound drivers. The sounds are playing; Windows 10 is not accepting the instruction to implement the modified sound scheme.

Method 3 directs to a page that does not exist.

Hi Ahmed,

Have you checked if No Sounds is enabled in the Sound Scheme settings? Click the drop-down menu for
Sound Scheme, and then select Windows Default.
