    Why does "Host Process for Windows Services" randomly show up in my volume mixer and when I go to try and find it in the Task Manager it does not show up, do I have malware?

  2. volume mixer in taskbar in WIndows 10

    Hi Caroline,



    The requirement of pinning Volume mixer to the taskbar is currently not available in Windows 10. However, you can view Volume mixer from the volume control icon located in the system tray.



    Before we assist further, I would like to ask you a few questions:


    • Are you not able to see volume icon or the volume mixer on the computer?

    • If volume icon, have you enabled the option to show in the system tray?


    If you want to view Volume mixer on the PC and have enabled volume icon on the system tray, follow the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.




    • Right click on the volume icon and select
      Open Volume Mixer
      from the context menu.

    • Check if the window is accessible on the computer.


    Note: The option to pin Volume mixer to the taskbar is not currently available on the computer.

    Hi,

    We would like to know more about your concern.

    1. Are you getting an error message when using volume mixer with mic?

    You may also follow the steps below:

    • Click in blank area in box -
    • Check show disabled devices & show disconnected devices - look around in there.

    We suggest that you disable the Icon try to reboot your PC and then enable the icon. You may also need to reinstall your sounds driver.

    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.
