Windows 10: Sound Slider Disappeared after latest Windows 10 Update

Recently my sound slider has disappeared, the only way for me to see what my volume is on is by going to my settings...

Both sound sliders... the one that appears on the top left and the one on the taskbar.

Hi Hank,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

• 
  Are you able to use Volume slider on the taskbar?
  
• 
  Do you get any error message?
  
• 
  Are you able to see sound icon on the taskbar?
  

I suggest you to hoover your mouse on the right side of the taskbar and click on the sound icon and try to use volume slider and check if it that works.

Follow the steps below and check.

• 
  Discover the empty slot on the
  Taskbar and Right click.
  
• 
  Click on Properties.
  
• 
  Under Taskbar tab and Notification area
  click on Custom.
  
• 
  Tap on Select which icons appears on the taskbar.
  
• 
  Turn on Volume option.
  

Hope this helps. If any other issues get back to us. We are glad to help you.
