Windows services ensure the functionality of different aspects of your operating system and therefore, if the Windows Audio service is not running, you won’t have any audio on your system.

This did not work either.īut looking at another Windows 10 computer (with working sound) I discovered that the service was running as "Local service" (I think that is the term, my computers are in Swedish -), NOT as the local system account. The reason you are seeing a red cross on the volume mixer is because the Windows Audio service has stopped. I tried all the "restart Audio services" tricks I could find, but to no avail.Īnother tip was to ensure that the services was running as the local system account (Services->Windows Audio Service->Properties then the "Login" tab). You might already know that audio features require dedicated. To do so look for Windows Audio service > right-click > Restart. Note: If the service is already running, and set to Automatic, you simply need to restart it.

And they were definitely running.Īt first I thought it was the drivers so I re-installed all of them, but could not get any sound from any of the audio devices (built-in, PCIe card or Bluetooth headset). If the audio service is not running on Windows 10/8/7, then it can mean different things. Look for Windows Audio service > right-click > Properties.

Windows troubleshooter for audio complained that the audio services was not responding, but offered no action to remedy the situation. My Audio services was running, but I got a red cross over the volume control icon and I had no sound.
