after installing the latest version today, 8/20/25, i have absolutely NO sound. went through all the suggestions found here and still NO sound. it wants to use FxSounds as my default, but there are no speakers assigned to Fx thus, NO sound. what am i doing wrong? nothing was touched prior to the update today. ---

Can you check the output device selected and volume set in system volume mixer ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/fxsound/original/2X/3/3773f83afd93ad0c47605a18bd747de023a28c7f.png) ---

Ditto, immediately after latest update. Uninstall then reinstall still nothing. Denis. ---

part of the problem is that it will not let me select any other device except Fx, to which there are no speakers for that. it set itself as the default and will not let me change speakers at all. very strange to me. ---

I similar issue was reported in GitHub and solved. Can you please try rebooting and also check the volume in System \> Sound \> Volume mixer. [Installed new version, now all sound output volumes are barely hearable even at maximum settings · Issue #377 · fxsound2/fxsound-app](https://github.com/fxsound2/fxsound-app/issues/377) ---

i have reinstalled 3 times already. the second time was after using CCleaner to uninstall Fx completely. and all the volume settings have been checked too many times to count really. so, while fx is still installed, i’m a bit too burned out to keep messing with it. think i will give it a rest for a week or two and then get back to it with a fresh start. i found a work around that will do till then. thanks. ---

OK, so, unable to fix this I went into Windows\> Device Manager\> Audio inputs and outputs\> Speakers (FX Sound Audio Enhancer)\> Properties\> Driver tab, and clicked Update driver. I chose “Search automatically for drivers “ option and let it do the job. Once done I rebooted and FX worked as normal. Problem solved for me, might not work for everyone. This was on win 10 with all updates. ---

thanks. i’m running Win 11 with all updates (like i have a choice). i’ll try doing the driver update from Win instead of Fx and see how that works. thanks.
