Sometimes I HATE Windows 11

An update came and audio went out.

I’ve been trying to get audio to work since last night and nothing works. Not even USB audio dongle. No audio through HDMI, no audio through USB C monitor,… even FUCKING BLUETOOTH doesn’t work! The devices are visible on Device Manager.

uninstall all those sound devices then restart.
Hope it will work

I have uninstalled every audio driver, restarted, downloaded the latest driver, installed, then restarted and still no audio.

this is utter nonsense,I experienced such trash and was wondering the hell they want us to do; something as simple as lighting the Bluetooth headset and getting on with music… maumbwa wanatufanyisha uumbwa ya kuinstall na kurestart kila saa na kununua ma USB dongle,… anyway ukipata solution tuupdate

I gave up. I reinstalled Windows. I had spent hours already without making any progress towards anything that looked like a solution.

BRUH…
:roll_eyes: I reinstalled Windows. Audio was fine. Left it to update then came back to the same shit.

Sick! Just uninstall the damn updates

I FINALLY FIXED IT!

The problem was with Intel HD Audio drivers from HP. The latest drivers would fail during silent installation by falsely reporting that Windows 11 is not supported yet it’s labeled for Windows 11.

Extracting the drivers from the setup and doing a manual install fixed all the audio issues. Very weird.

Linux (Debian) user here. Niliachana na Windows walipoleta version 10 halafu mambo yakaanza kuwa complicated and I’ve never looked back. Stable OS, no hangups, no mis-installed drivers. Very secure, one cannot change system settings (even install an app or updates) without admin password even when logged in as an admin. Kitu inaitwa viruses/malware nilisikia mwisho in 2015 wakati nikiwa natumia windows.

I’m more of an Arch-based guy, but nimedual boot na Windows 10 Iot LTCS. Best of both worlds baby.

ALL that is about to change

That sounds incredibly frustrating! Dealing with audio issues can be such a headache, especially when it seems like nothing you try is working. It’s frustrating when even Bluetooth isn’t cooperating!
