  2. Headphones Not Detected

    Wasn't sure what topic to put this under.

    Windows 10 refuses to detect my headphones from my headset. The mic is fine. The computer even recognizes when I plug the headphones of the headset in. But it refuses to detect them. I can go into my Sound in Control Panel all day, and there will NEVER be any
    headphones in that list. So, no, I cannot click headphones, just making that clear before someone suggests clicking on headphones.

    How do I force Windows 10 to detect the headphones that I have plugged in, so that they will work? The jack is working fine. When I plug them in it gives me the pop-up letting me know that I plugged something into the jack. But that's the end of it. It will
    not detect the headphones. Nothing comes out of them. There are no headphones in the Sound list. There is nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Why does it register something is plugged in and then refuse to detect it?

    Someone please figure out why Windows 10 simply cannot detect headphones and help me fix this so I can use my headset.

    Windows not detecting headphones when plugged into computer

    My Remastered Sennheiser HD 569 headphones do not work and do not get detected by windows when plugged into my computer's designated port. My headphones only work when plugged into my monitor's headphone port. What is going on?

  4. Why isnt my computer detecting my headphones when they are plugged in

    Computer detects my headphones but no sound

    Greetings,
    My laptop was fine but after a reset, my headphones stopped working. When I plug it in, it is detected but no sound from any headphone or earbuds i plug in.
    They all work on other devices though.
    I tried to troubleshoot but windows cant find anything.
    I tried to uninstall the headphone as well as the realtek drivers and reinstall but still doesnt work.

    I have been searching for a solution all day but couldnt find any solution.

    Any suggestions would be much appriciated
