Windows Volume goes down when Spotify is switch off

Thanks for the response/reply.

Followed the step mentioned in your reply, but it didn't help.

I can clearly hear the different in volume when I play a song on YouTube (over the browser), and as soon as I switch on Spotify, the volume of the song goes high even me without doing anything, and when I minimize Spotify application, the volume goes down
again.

Not sure if the volume is increased by spotify or not.

 

Cortana - Spotify problem

So when I tell Cortana to play a song on spotify she does successfully finds the songs but doesn't actually play it. She just brings up spotify without changing the song.

I found this fix:

• 1. Unlink Cortana (in her settings)
• 2. Revoke Cortana app access (via accounts.spotify.com), and while you're logged on...
• 3. Set up an App Password especially if you're using facebook to log in (this may not be neccessary, but I did so just to circumvent all potnetial issues).
• 4. Uninstall Spotify
  
  5. Install Spotify from the Windows Store (I believe the actual cause of the issue is that those of us with the problem probably installed from the Spotify Installer download, rather than
  the Windows Store).
• 6. Launch and log in to the Spotify app with the app password you created in step three.
  
  7. Link Cortana using the app password you created in step three.
• 8. Restart your computer (my Cortana didn't think Spotify was installed until I did so).
  
  9. Enjoy hands-free music browsing!

The problem with this tho is that it only works untill i shut down/restart the PC. After that I need to redo this all again in order for it to work and its really frustrating to do this everytime I open my computer.

 

When I turn on my second monitor my first monitor turns off briefly

I recently had an issue with my PC regarding a Windows Update. I was getting annoying errors in the Event Viewer and ended up using a System Restore. Everything seems to be okay now, except for one thing: When I turn on my second monitor, the first monitor goes off briefly, and then comes back on as soon as the second monitor turns on. (And the opposite happens: if I turn the second monitor off, the first monitor goes off as well, then pops back on). This never happened prior to the system restore. Any idea how to fix that? I have tried to google this problem but I get a lot of mixed and unrelated results. I'm running Windows 10 Home. My main monitor is an Alienware AW2721D and my second monitor is an old NEC EA231WMi. Both use display ports on my 3080ti graphics card. All other specs are listed in my profile if needed. Edit: I also have the latest nVidia drivers as of today.
