  1. Windows doesn't follow my default audio source


    I just updated to Windows 11 and it is now causing a severe audio problem. I have two audio sources connected to my computer:1. A Steelseries Arctis Pro headest2. A Scarlett Focusrite USB DAC for my speakersSo here's the problem, as soon as I updated to Windows 11, it immediately switched all audio to my Focusrite box. I made my headset the default audio system, and Windows is still prioritizing the Focusrite box. However, if I disable the Focusrite box through Windows, the audio immediately switches to my headset with no problem. This happened for my games, my internet browser, and Disc

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:
