Windows 10: Windows Start Up Sound does NOT play anymore after reset

Had to do a reset on my Windows 10 laptop. After all those 1809 updates things were just not working great.


Everything OK now BUT that Windows Start Up sound won't play. It plays on Restart but not Start. I can click all day long on this>>>


BUT it doesn't help.


Not that this is the end of the world - I do like when everything runs right. Any ideas????

:)

No sound while playing audio and video files.

Hi,

I appreciate if you could answer to a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• Which is the application that you are using to play the files?
• Did you try the same on a different player?
• Did you perform any troubleshooting steps?

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to check if the volume is set low or in mute state in Volume Mixer.

• Right click on sound icon.
• Open Volume Mixer check for the application that you are playing the files with and increase the volume and check.

If the issue still persists, I would suggest you to run “Playing audio” troubleshooter to diagnose and fix the issue.

Follow these Steps to run Playing Audio Troubleshooter in Windows 10.

1. Type troubleshooting in the search bar.

2. Select Troubleshooting.
