Bang & Olufsen Experience won't enable...

[Mecham_N]

Hi, I have spent a few hours now trying to update my audio driver, as I noticed that the Bang & Olufsen options on my Omen Audio Control was no longer enabled. When I click to enable it, nothing happens - in fact, when I change tabs, it disables it and will not allow me to access the additional features. I am only able to access the equalizer.

I have provided an image below of the screen.

I have tried updating it to different versions of the driver, past and present, as well as uninstalling and reinstalling, restoring my laptop and resetting the application - no luck! 

I have looked through the channels on here, but they all seem to be quite different (perhaps I have just not looked hard enough) - apologies if it has been answered.

My laptop is an OMEN by HP 15-dc1015na.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi Praveen 

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately it has not resolved the issue and in fact I have no lost the option I am referring to completely.

Troubleshooting didn't find any issues either.

Any further suggestions?

Thanks

@Mecham_N, 

We have done the basic troubleshooting as per the document and the notebook needs to checked taking remote access so that get to know it's a hardware or software issue.

I'd suggest you contact HP in your region regarding the service options for your computer or HP Chat Support Team.
