Windows 10: Sound Settings change after update

Why is it nearly every time Windows 10 updates it changes previously set sound settings?

Also on the last update it totally wiped all my music out of windows media player and it will not retrieve it anymore.

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

 

How to change "sound control panel" settings in Windows 10

Hi,

If the sound format settings goes back to cd quality after restart, we suggest you check if sound enhancement is enabled. Driver enhancements give you some special sound effects that will enhance your audio experience. To disable the enhancements, simply follow
the steps provided below:

• Click Start.
  
• Type Sound in the Start search box and click Sound from the available options.
  
• On the Playback tab, click Speakers and then click Properties.
  
• Click the Enhancements tab and then select the Disable all enhancements check box.
  
• Then follow the steps by Vanessa Yar to change the sound format, Click on Apply then Ok.
  

We also suggest you update the driver of your audio. Generally speaking, updated drivers deliver better functionality and improved performance. For the most part, you certainly want to upgrade your drivers unless you have a very specific reason for not wanting
to do so. To perform the task, simply follow the steps provided by Andre Da Costa on this

link.

If you require any further information, feel free to let us know.

Regards.
