My desktop has no sound

Hello,

Such problem usually happens when a service called “Windows Audio” does malfunction or not started.

1. Go to Start menu >> type “Run” >> hit Enter.

2. Type “services.msc” >> hit Enter.

3. Scroll down and find out for “Windows Audio” service.

4. Double-click to open “Properties” of the service.

5. From “General” tab, set the following settings:
Startup type: Automatic
Service status: Started (if “Stopped”, click “Start” button to start the service)

6. Press Apply >> OK.

Also, check your sound driver for latest update. It is important because the latest drivers get new improvements and issues fixed. Download Realtek HD Audio Codecs.

Now, you should be able to enjoy nice sound.
