Windows 10: Windows 10 ~ No sound from most of my programs

As you can read in the title. I can't get any sound from — almost — all of my programs, apparently, without any reason at all. If I try playing music using windows media player it'll show up an error saying "No audio device detected or installed" but windows does detect the audio devices and if i try running audio test, it does sound. Weirdest part of the problem is:

Groove Music

Movies and TV

and with an exception Windows Media Player only if I start it using the driver's icon on the taskbar does play sound without any problems.

I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling my audio driver — Like 100 times — but didn't work. Also tried using the generic driver , but doesn't work neither.


This happen with Realtek High Definition Audio
