Windows 10: Windows 10 sound not working.

The only sound output device that is working is Digital Audio (S/PDIF). I can't do anything with this device so I have no sound. The headphones that I am trying to use keep saying that they are not plugged in. It must have read them at some point because the computer knows the exact location that they were plugged into even though they never worked. Does anyone know how to fix this problem. I have already tried the trouble shooter. And I don't know how to install drivers because I can't hear the video I'm watching on how to do it.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Hi Peter,

One possible reason why the HDMI sound does not work is due to the conflicts with the playback settings. For us to help you make the HDMI sound to work, we suggest that you answer the following questions for further research:

• What is the current build and version of your Windows 10?
• Have you tried to download and install the most updated sound and display driver of your computer?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you perform the steps on this
article as our initial troubleshooting and see if there will be any changes on the HDMI sound.

We'll be waiting for your response.
