Windows 10: Windows update broke computer audio

I just installed a couple of Windows Update drivers, which caused my computer's audio to break, and I cannot find more information about it. List of updates both installed on 9/23/2024:Intel Corporation - Extension - 3.1524.510.1Intel Corporation - Extension - 23.1040.0.1My "speaker" icon on the taskbar is blinking mute/unmute, and the sound isn't working. I wasn't able to find which drivers should be rolled back.

Latest updates broke windows shares... Argh!

I gave up long ago trying to solve that problem. Instead I have created shortcuts to access each computer on my network. As long as the computer is turned on and awake I can always access it this way. Step 1: Create folder on desktop call My Network

Step 2: In that folder create shortcuts to each computer on network. Note each computer must be turned on and awake to create the shortcut to it.
