No sound after Avast Driver Updater updates
« on: December 12, 2023, 07:45:02 AM »
Hi,

Installed Avast Updater, updated to recommended drivers and lost sound completely in my laptop Dell XPS 9700 on Windows 11. Reverted back to previous drivers but still no sound. Asked Avast support, he spend over an hour, to no avail. He said he would escalate and send me email with follow up but never received it.
Still no sound, avast doesn't have solution for their product issue which I can see exists for over 2 years now.

Please provide me fix if you can?

I found fix.

I went to Dell website. I looked for original audio drivers. I installed them and now I have sound back.
