Check the cord. Sorry I have a cat.

P.S.: I sent a link to a YouTube video, but you may not have a device that can play the audio. If you don’t, click on the “cc” at the bottom of the video for closed captioning so you can see a largely correct transcription of a possible solution for the missing audio.

4th post. 🤣

Well, I’ll be. You must have sent good vibes because when I turned it on after reading your post, poof!, I have sound!!!! Relief, sigh. I had just posted the plea for help right after checking it for the hundredth time. Whatever, I’ll take good vibes. Thanks, LOL.

If things get whacky again, you may need to update drivers and the bios. I needed to do that on my work computer.

Yes, currently using Chrome.

Found the on/off for bookmark bar and it was already on but don’t see it. How do I move FR up to it? Thanks.

[bgill]

Four. Yes, she sat on the keyboard when it was just finishing the update even though I’d halfway closed the lid. But will always blame Windows.

[bgill]

I just got through a similar problem with the touch pad. Microsoft now has some very good tools and instructions to identify and solve most problems. May i suggest that you open an edge browser window and search for “Fix sound or audio problems in Windows” That should get you to the widows trouble shooter.

i recommend you have a pad and pen/pencil handy to make notes if needed. you may find it useful to have your cell phone camera handy to take pictures of instructions if you ave to move to other pages as part of the trouble shooter.

If you are not feeling like doing trouble shooting, you should be able to call the manufacturer to walk you through Device Manager and finding and updating drivers.

Dell and Lenovo both have good apps that update all their drivers on command. HP has one, too, but I don’t like it.

PS. Sorry, I can’t comment upon the browser settings.

Instead of Edge I use the Mozilla FireFox browser. I have not updated from Win 10 to Win 11 yet.

Im not familiar with the idiosyncracies of the Win 11 version of browser.
