Welcome to HP Forums, 

This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips, 

Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂 

 

As I understand the volume buttons are not working, anymore,

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

Did you attempt reinstalling the HP Quick Launch to resolve this issue? (Click here, if you haven't - the same article applies for both Windows 7 & 8.1)

What steps have you done so far? to ensure we don't repeat them?

 

Here’s the step by step guide for you:

  1. Click the Start button, then click Run. 
  2. In the Run window, next to Open, type MSCONFIG. 
  3. Press the ENTER key. 
  4. In the System Configuration Utility window, click the Startup tab. 
  5. On the Startup tab, under Startup Item, ensure that there is a check in the HKserv checkbox. 
     
    NOTE: If HKserv is missing, reinstall the Hot-Key Utility application by Clicking here

    For Windows 10 drivers: Click here

(ignore the ads, 3rd party link has been sent to ensure your issue is fixed, I'm going beyond my way to help you and if you would like to give me virtual high five, Click on the purple thumbs up 🙂 )

 

If the above doesn't help, please create another User account as suggested earlier and try again.

 

Let me know how that pans out

I hope you have a good day ahead,

And Feel free to ask any other queries as  well,

Considering, this forum has some of the best people in the world available and ready to help.

{If this resolved your concern, Click on "Accept as Solution" & the Purple Thumbs up}.

I do not have the HKserv and when I click on the link to get it, I get rerouted back to this same page?
