Sometimes for me the default speaker changes from the headset to something else, you could try looking in there to see if that's the case. Right click the speaker in the tray icon, open sound settings and check the output device

Sounds like a sound card, probably driver issue - I assume you have tried normal speakers? Is the headset USB connection or 3.5mm headjack?
EDIT: OK, USB implies it's a driver/headset software issue. As masafor said, uninstall your headset driver/software, and try again, reinstalling as necessary if Windows doesn't pickup the software automatically.

Normal speakers work just fine. I even tried the back USB ports but with no avail. But I get the audio highlight sound whenever I plug it in, if that helps.

If nothing else works, try uninstalling KB4532695:

Hi, What is the headset model? If it's a gaming one and uses some third party driver with USB, have you tried uninstalling & installing the latest version of drivers? Can you check in any other PC if the headset is still working?
It might even be Windows 10 update as @courtesan above has said.

Hey,
so I used my headset for years now and it's still in working condition. But ever since the last Windows 10 Update, Windows doesn't recognize it anymore. Usually I just plugged it in and I got sound through it. That's not the case anymore.
What can I do? I tried device manager and all but it even doesn't show up there. It's not broken. I tested it on another PC.
Anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance
