Need fix for lost audio from update to Windows 24H2

Anonymous

I updated to Windows 24H2. I have now lost all of my audio. When I hover my mouse over the sound icon in the tray, it shows that "No audio device is installed". How do I fix this?

After returning from a few days away the problem resolved itself. My problem has now been resolved.

Here is an update to my post that originated this thread. Today, Microsoft forced me to update to Windows 24H2. I couldn't figure a way not to update. As expected, the update disabled my sound. I went to do a recovery to the previous operating system and in that process found a way to contact Microsoft Support. Using the onscreen chat, I had about a 10 minute wait and then connected with an agent who fixed the issue through remote access. I now have Windows 11 24H2 and an operating sound system. I'm posting this in case it helps anyone else.

Hi

I did what a couple of you suggested. Get Microsoft support via live chat. It took about 1 1/2 - 2 hours but they fixed it. I have sound now.
