Since I've updated my version of Skype, I have no sound in windows in anything except Skype?

Its speakers are fully functional during a test and the volume levels are all very well (no, they are not muted), I've updated all the drivers and the sound card is also intact. However, there is still no sound (no windows sounds, no sound in media player / internet, etc), except Skype. You have an idea why this might be?

Hi NatashaBertaud,

Method 1

Check and make sure that the default audio device is properly set on the computer.

(a) click the Start button, select Control Panel, click hardware and soundand then click sound.

(b) click on the read tab make sure that the correct default audio device is selected. (For most users, the default audio device is pregnant.)

(c) if the default device is not set to the right audio device, on the read tab, select the appropriate device, click Properties, click the Advanced tab and make sure that the default Format is set to the value you expect. When you are finished, click OK.

(d) on the read tab, select the playback device, click set upand make sure that the configurations are set correctly.

If the sound settings are set correctly and that your speakers are already set as default device, go to "Check if an audio driver is installed" now.

(e) select the audio device you want as audio device by default, and then click set as default.

(f) click OK to save your settings.

Method 2

If the previous step fails and then run the tool Fixit available in the article below and check if it helps.

    Since the last update to version 35.0.1, infinite scrolling (on Yahoo Answers in particular) has not worked. This seems to be a problem with Firefox, because it still work if I use the Internet Explorer browser. Some of my others preferring the settings been dirtied with during the automatic update (tabs and recorded history) I have to wonder if it is a real bug, or just a setting that has changed during the update. Whatever the reason, it is not a setting I changed, and it's frustrating. Help, please.
