Headphone Jack not Recognized in Windows 11

I had the same problem. Turns out it is because I keep all startup services disabled including Realtek Audio services. Now once I have enabled it shows a notification on bottom right corner asking "which device you plugged in?" and selecting Headphones in it makes it work now.

Hope this helps.

That was the solution for me thank you so much!

1. CRTL + ALT + DEL
2. Startup apps
3. RtkAudUService64.exe or similar -> enable

My Headphone Jack no longer works after upgrading to Windows 11. It works if I have it plugged in and reboot, but as soon as I unplug it stops until a reboot....it does not automatically detect it

The only solution that worked for me:

1/

Download "Realtek HD Audio Manager" https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/pc-audio-codecs-high-definition-audio-codecs-softw...

2/

Start Dell Audio "RtkNGUI64.exe" in C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\hdxrt.inf_amd64_b0026a592e9b4de4

3/

Select the last tab (advanced)

Select Plug info

Click on the radio button with no name

Select the right device (headset with mic)

From time to time (each restart or OS update?), you will have to start-over to point 2. This is why I put a shortcut on my desktop to the Dell Audio program...
