    Volume Mixer has a mind of its own


    Every time I reset the application volumes to 100, they dance around between 79-100. On top of that, certain applications set to random volume values, and the system sounds volume keeps resetting itself back to 0.

    Here is video footage of what I mean.

    Any help is appreciated.

    :)

    Volume Mixer not showing muted app

    The application was muted on Windows 10 with November update. Now I am using Anniversary update, on build 14393.10

    The initial step did not help make Banished show up in the Volume Mixer, nor did the article.
