Your Windows audio can stop working for many different reasons. A sound problem in Windows can be caused by anything, including your speakers and headphones. Also, outdated or corrupt audio drivers may be responsible for this problem. Therefore, you should try configuring your audio device correctly and updating your audio drivers. Speakers, headphones, audio software, or even the entire OS can be responsible for audio problems most of the time. In addition, the majority of problems with Windows are caused by misconfigurations. Sometimes, we forget to turn on the soundbar or select the wrong audio format. Identifying the problem is relatively straightforward, but it could also be the case the sound only works sometimes, or with specific devices only, or within a particular program.
