Volume Icon does not react at all.

HP Pavillion dv7-6b57nr Entertainment Notebook PC

The volume icon does not react at all. It is acting dead. Could be dead or last update from Windows 10 attacked it or it is a Driver thing, which is no longer supported by HP? 

So please someone help a 73 y/o lady on SS who obviously cannot buy another computer right now. Thank you.

@gypsy2000 Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you are facing an audio issue.

I suggest you download and run the HP Support Assistant from this Link: https://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/hpsupport.html?jumpid=va_r602_us/en/any/psg/p...

HPSA will automatically search for all the latest drivers for your Notebook

1. Click My devices in the top menu, and then click Updates in the My PC or My notebook pane.

1. Click Check for updates and messages to scan for new updates.

1. Review the list of updates. Updates with a yellow information icon are recommended. Updates with a blue information icon are optional.
2. Click the update name for a description, version number, and file size.
3. Select the box next to any updates you want to install, and then click Download and install.

Also ensure Windows is up to date

Select the Start  button, and then go to Settings  > Update & security  > Windows Update , and select Check for updates. If Windows Update says your device is up to date, you have all the updates that are currently available

Keep us posted,
