Windows 10: Windows 10 - Volume control is at 100; cannot be adjusted at all

A few days ago, a black rectangle appeared on the top left side of the screen. Turns out, it has to do with the volume control.

The sound volume is at 100, and cannot be lowered. I tried trouble-shooting; nothing helped.

Any suggestions?

Volume control

All my volume controls say they are at 100%, but I can't hear anything,after my upgrade to Windows 10. Any suggestions ?

 

volume control shows 100%, won't let me change it

The volume control icon appears in the notification area.

I shows 100%. It won't show the slider that let's me adjust

the volume. How can I get it back to where I can adjust the

volume?

Thanks.
