If you’re a Windows user, you’ve probably encountered the frustration of your computer suddenly going mute after you’ve changed the volume. This can be a major inconvenience, especially if you’re in the middle of watching a video or listening to music. Fortunately, there are a few things you can do to fix this problem. In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps on how to stop Windows from muting the sound after changing the volume.
One of the most common causes of this problem is a setting in the Windows Control Panel. To check this setting, open the Control Panel and navigate to the “Sound” section. Under the “Playback” tab, select the playback device you’re using and click on the “Properties” button. In the “Properties” window, click on the “Levels” tab. Here, you’ll see a slider that controls the volume of the playback device. Make sure that the slider is set to the desired volume level. If the slider is set to “Mute,” click on the “Unmute” button.
If the problem persists, there may be a problem with the sound drivers on your computer. To check this, open the Device Manager and expand the “Sound, video and game controllers” section. Here, you’ll see a list of all the sound devices installed on your computer. Right-click on the playback device you’re using and select “Uninstall.” Once the device has been uninstalled, restart your computer. Windows will automatically reinstall the sound drivers, which may resolve the problem.
