I have just updated to 1903, and have lost all sound. I have a Creative Audigy2 ZS Pro, yes, I know it's old, but it was working perfectly on build 1809.

After this 1903 update, no sound, so I went back to 1809, and hey presto, I got my sound back. I then tried the very latest 1903 build, but lost the sound again. Have MS got an answer? I will have to go back to 1809 if I want to hear anything, but can wait a day or so if anyone at MS can give me a solution.

    That's not the problem here. 

    I still have the original installation files and have run them but it doesn't help.

    There is something in 1909 that stops it from working.  It's not a case of the update having removed something.

    Hi, same problem … lost my Audigy 2 Platinum on the 1909 update.  Lost it in Windows 7 and lost it twice now in Windows 10.  I heaved on this problem for two days including Daniel K's support pack.  The PCI input device records the event "requires further installation" which is a generic message that actually means "out of luck dude".  The card was and still is a darling but the breakout box is integral with a musical instrument.  I hope someone finds another alternative.

    If you talk about third party programs you must retain each and every third party setup program archived somewhere safe so you can retrieve it and reinstall if it somehow has been removed by windows reinstall. Windows 10 typically removes third party programs that will then need to be reinstalled by the administrator or owner of the machine harboring windows 10. You also typically need a key as provided by the third party retail outlet.
