How Do I Turn On Speakers in Windows 10?

Published in Computer Troubleshooting 2 mins read

You can turn on your speakers in Windows 10 by following these simple steps:

  1. Click the speaker icon in the taskbar, usually located in the bottom right corner of your screen.
  2. Check if the volume is muted. If the speaker icon has a diagonal line through it, click it to unmute the sound.
  3. Adjust the volume slider to your desired level.
  4. Verify that your speakers are selected as the output device. Right-click the speaker icon and choose "Open Sound settings". In the "Output" section, make sure your speakers are selected as the default device.

If your speakers still aren't working, you may need to:

  • Check your speaker connections. Ensure the speakers are plugged in correctly and the cables are not damaged.
  • Update your audio drivers. Outdated drivers can cause audio issues. You can update your drivers through the Device Manager.
  • Troubleshoot audio problems. Windows has a built-in audio troubleshooter that can help diagnose and fix common issues.

Remember, if you're experiencing persistent audio issues, it's always best to consult the manufacturer's website or contact their support for assistance.
