Hello

Recently I have been experiencing little issue - I am used to middle click on videos/music I want to check in future and then just click on the play symbol on tab but when I click on the tab to start playing, there is no sound, so I click on the tab and check what is up - the video is muted by default for no reason. When I am clicking from current tab, the sound is same but on the new tab ones, automatically muted.

HI, please search for Device Manager and check your Sound Card Drivers to see if Win 10 as changed it to a 2006 Windows Driver. If so reinstall your proper sound drivers what ever those maybe. (realtec maybe) Might want to check your Video Card Drivers while there as Win10 will replace any and all system drivers.
