Any solution for "The Audio Service is not running"?

Searching high and low on the Internet, I can't find a solution to the difficulty of the notification in the status bar:
"The Audio Service is not working" even if my audio works.  I find that this problem exists for many people using Win7.

I just found this link that Microsoft provided, (which means that it is indeed a problem acknowledged by Microsoft), but without any real fix.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2011656

Hey, someone from Microsoft can we give a hint he will never be a solution to this?

Thank you.

Reach:

Control Panel > administrative tools > view local Services
It's the "service" window, it lists all system services. Find "Windows Audio", NOT "Windows Audio Endpoint Builder.
[just click on any service, then press the letter 'W' on your keyboard, will need you the services starting with the letter 'w']
Right-click on the "Windows Audio" service and choose "Properties".
You will see 4 tabs, click on the last one, titled "dependencies".
In this tab, you will see the box "this service depends on the following system components", it displays 3 services
Next to each service, there is a "+" icon, click on it to expand the list. 2nd service 2 child services, the 3rd service will be 1 serving children.
Now make sure that all 6 services (3-hand, 3 children) have the status of "started" in the "Services" window you opened earlier
Most propably you will find one of these services don't work, just start all the, then try to start the service "Windows Audio" in the tab "general".
That's all

    Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp55001-55500/sp55026.exe

  • Problems with error Windows Audio and Control Panel "one or more of the audio service is not running.

    I'm a bit of a technophobe, but I'll try to explain my problem, I got better.  I recently had a problem with Windows 8 and refreshed my system.  After refreshing, I installed AVG Anti-virus and that's where my problems really started.  After installing AVG I have no sound and my control panel usually pop up.  The box is displayed but there is nothing in it and it sorts just of sticks, frozen.  I tried the fixes recommended to fix my sound. The speaker in my taskbar icon has a red x on it and when I try to open it it goes right to the problem-solving mode, then comes up with "one or more of the audio service is not running.  When I try "run services.msc' and try to start Windows Audio through Services I get error 0x800706cc.  I tried to uninstall AVG and reboot, but it did make a difference.  Please help, this leads me to the madness now.  Nothing I try seems to work!

    Installation of AVG is when the problems started, I would start by undoing that.  Since the normal uninstall did not help, use system restore to return to a work situation.  Check here and use the #1 option.

    Hello! I recently solved this problem on my pc. AVG detected malware in the last patch of Win8.

  • Cannot start the unit because the authorization service is not running - cannot start service

    I'm weirded out. When I try to start the unit on my VM, I get the following message:

    The Virtual Machine cannot be set to Unity mode because:
    -The VMWare authorization Service is not running.

    So, after a little checking, I realize that indeed, the authorization Service is not running on my host. I am trying to launch and get the following message (translated from the french, sorry):

    Windows cannot start the VMWare authorization on your local server. For more information, see Event Viewer. If this isn't a Microsoft service, contact your service provider indicating the service specific error code: 6000002.

    Event Viewer is a little more detailed... But not really useful:

    Unable to retrieve the token for the user to VMware: unknown error 1385 (0 x 569) (1385)

    NONE of these error messages to display more than a few visits on Google, especially not in exact search (with quotes around the exact phrase) mode. I'm at a loss as to what I can operate the unit.

    Technical details:

    Host: Windows XP SP3 (French)

    Dell Optiplex 760, Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 @ 3.33 GHz. 3 GB of Ram.

    VMWare: 7.0.0 build-203739

    Client: Windows XP SP3 (English)

    I have attached my log of vmware just in case. Will be extremely grateful for any help!

    Thank you!

    The only other thing I can think is a reinstallation of the vmx86 service. Rerun the batch previously posted like this, with the extreme detail;

    Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 36

    "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - stop vmx86

    "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - uninstall vmx86

    "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - install vmx86

    "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - beginning vmx86

    Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 3

    and repeat once more for authd thereafter;

    Tracking Add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc." /v loglevel /f /t REG_DWORD /d 0 x 36

    "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - stop authd

    "%programfiles%\vmware\vmware workstation\vnetlib.exe" - uninstall authd

  • Gets the error in Windows Denfender for "the specified service does not exist as an installed device (error Code: 0 x 80070424).

    My computer was slow, so I tried to scan all using Windows Defender, and this error message keeps popping up, "the specified service does not exist as an installed device (error Code: 0 x 80070424) I don't know how fx this.» I' of love too see if there is another reliable computer, free softwear that can scan and virus scanning spywear.

    Hello

    Windows Defender is an antispyware software, not an Antivirus.

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):

    "Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.

    Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.

    Once modified, click apply and OK.

    Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"

    .

    And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:
