    Microsoft confirms audio issues in Windows 10 KB5016616 August 2022 Update

    Sorry, but I'm not going to bother responding any further to more basic suggestions that is available everywhere and obviously have not resolved anything. The problems have nothing to do with the drivers needing updating, settings changed, etc. It's an issue related to Windows security update.

    Microsoft confirms audio issues in Windows 10 KB5016616 August 2022 Update

    Nope. Been there and done it all in five years and nothing resolves it. What you're referring to is simply changing output settings. This issue has nothing to do with settings.

    Microsoft confirms audio issues in Windows 10 KB5016616 August 2022 Update

    Well, isn't that interesting.... I've sent them so many complaints about the audio and they do sh*t all about it. I was so peeved with Microsoft about the endless audio issues I've had with every single computer, as soon as the first update installs, reducing the volume on the speakers to...

    Office Tools not activating Office... what did I do wrong?

    I'm not sure how that is related or useful since I can't use Office at all, as I mentioned. It's blocked from use unless I activate it. I don't mind about popups if I can actually use it....

    Windows sound issues after first upgrade

    As I said it happens on every single computer that runs in Windows that I've had (4 of them now) so I don't think it matters what exact sound device it is.

    Office Tools not activating Office... what did I do wrong?

    Ok, so I came across Office Tool Plus on this board (wow, amazing app!). I managed to download Ms Office Home and Student 2021 from the website by using Office Tool. But when I use Office Tools to activate it (activate - install license - Ms Office Home and Student 2021 - activate) it lists and...

    Windows sound issues after first upgrade

    Thank you for the recommend. :) I tried all of that and any other recommendation I've found online. Nothing works once that first Windows security update is done. My computer has BOSE speakers and they turned worse than the $5 headphones you find in the dollar store once the windows update ran....

    Windows sound issues after first upgrade

    This is an issue I have noticed with every new windows computers I have owned. When you get the computer fresh, newly purchased, the sound is excellent. As soon as windows force an automatic update (usually about a week later after you've gone through the fresh install of on a new computer...
