Today we will talk about what you can do if there is no sound on Windows 11. Some of the following tips may seem a little too obvious. But sometimes the most difficult problems are often solved by the simplest tricks. So, let’s get started!
Press ‘Windows + A’ and this will take you to the action center. Next to the volume adjuster, click on the arrow. You will now see the list of devices that you can use for audio output. So, once you select the right device the problem should be fixed.
- Check if the audio or your speaker is mute – This does seem like a no-brainer. But more often than we would like to admit, this can happen. So, before you do anything else, simply check the audio volume on all output devices.
- You can try to adjust the sound settings of Windows 11 – All you need to do is click the Windows button. Under the ‘Sound’ click on ‘Sound Settings’. You will then have to select the audio output. Then click on the arrow where you can modify the properties of the speaker. In the ‘General’ section you may have to click the ‘Allow’ button so that your PC can use the device for playback.
- If all else fails, use the Windows Audio Troubleshooter – Go to the ‘Advanced’ section of the ‘Sound’ settings. One of the options that you see will be ‘Troubleshoot common sound problems. Next to this option will be ‘Output devices’. Click on this. This will launch the Windows troubleshooter and Windows 11 will look for the audio problem itself. Conclusion – Troubleshooting audio may seem something which only a tech addict can do. But that is not the case. Sometimes a particularly difficult problem may be fixed in a few easy steps. We hope the tips above would be helpful in case you are trying to fix the no sound issue on Windows 11.
