[SOLVED] Windows 10 Sound Settings Won't Open When Pressing The Taskbar Shortcut

[ThaSpoda]

So when I try to use my taskbar sound icon (taskbar -> right click on sound icon -> open sound settings) shortcut literally opens a cmd for a split second and closes. I've tried to /sfc now and it did nothing to help. I've tried everything and nothing has worked out for me please help me out!

Try reinstalling the latest sound card drivers.

How do i do that?

What sound card do you have? If it's off the motherboard then just go to the motherboard mfg. driver page and download and install the latest sound card drivers for your specific motherboard.
If it's a discrete sound card, go to the mfg. website and download the drivers for your specific model.

1. Disconnect the speaker and connect again.
2. Check for sound driver update with any driver tools.
3. See if other settings are coming or not.
4. Do a disk clean up on c:drive where windows is installed.
