• Windows 10 No Enhancements Tab For Audio

Windows 10 comes with many new features over Windows 8. One of the new features you’ll find when using Windows 10 is the audio enhancements brought to you by Microsoft and other third-party developers. The audio enhancements are designed to do just as the name suggests and give your ears a better audio experience. Depending on your set of circumstances, that won’t always be the case. For all you people negatively affected by the audio, there is a way in which you can turn off the audio enhancements in Windows 10 that were becoming more of an audio hindrance.

Most audio issues that arise on computers, notebooks and laptops derive from driver issues. Therefore, before you do anything audio related, you should check that your audio driver is up to date. Windows makes driver updates as easy as possible by giving a ‘search automatically’ for the driver updates. You also have the manual option there if the automatic update doesn’t work. Once you know that your sound problem is not driver related you might want to try this fix below to turn off audio enhancements in Windows 10.

REQUIREMENTS

Most of us are happy as long as our computer can play sound, but Windows 10 does come with many settings for you to improve your computer's sound quality. You can do things such as change the sound effects, disable audio enhancements, and more. This shows how to manage Windows 10 sound settings.

• The following guide teaches you how to turn off audio enhancements in Windows 10. Some features follow on to new operating systems while others are new. We do not recommend you follow this guide for any other Windows operating system version apart from Windows 10 since the steps might change and/or the feature might not be available.

HOW TO DISABLE AUDIO ENHANCEMENTS IN WINDOWS 10

1. Type Sound into the search field and click the on result that is listed under the same name.

• No Audio or Sound is missing on Windows 10 computer. On the Enhancements tab, select Disable all enhancements and see if you can play your audio device. If it helps, great, else do this for.
• Mar 03, 2017  After upgrading from windows 7 to windows 10, the sound enhancements tab is gone! The main problem is that this option is not working fine on Windows 10 so it has been removed automatically. The only way to have the sound enhancements back is removing the updated sound driver and install the old one from the Lenovo hompage.

2. Wait for the Sound Properties box to load.

3. Click the Playback tab.

4. Right-click over the default device.

5. Select the Properties from the new menu.

6. A new Speakers Properties box will open. Click the Enhancements tab from the menu.

7. Look for the box called disable all enhancements.

8. Check that box by clicking the mouse on that square and it will disable the audio enhancements in Windows 10.

9. Double-check the audio still works by playing that device. You will notice a difference even if there isn’t any problem. Those of you who were having audio issues before should notice a large change and hopefully one that’s for the better.

Turning on the audio enhancements is as simple as following the same steps only this time removing the checkmark from the box. In other words, follow the exact same steps as the guide above, but when you get to step 8, you need to uncheck that box.

If your problem is fixed but the sound is not what you had come to expect, you can try adjusting the audio from the sound card software. The settings you have available from the sound card software will far outweigh the default settings you get from Windows. You should get the right sound quality eventually by adjusting the settings with the sound card software.

Microsoft and third-party vendors have shipped audio enhancement packages designed to make your system’s specific hardware sound absolutely perfect. These are referred to as Audio Enhancements in Windows 10. But sometimes, these very ‘enhancements’ can cause problems with audio and sound. If you face issues with your audio in Windows 10, you may want to disable Audio Enhancements and see if it helps.

If you see a message Windows has detected that audio enhancements for the following device are causing problems and you’re sure that your audio driver is up to date and you still experiencing the problem, and no audio works on your machine or you can’t play music, hear system sounds, or play any audio from the internet, try disabling the audio enhancement.

Turn Off Audio Enhancements in Windows 10

In the taskbar search, type ‘Sound’ and select Sound Control Panel item from the list of results.

The Sound properties box will open. Under the Playback tab, right-click the Default Device – Speakers/Headphones and select Properties.

In the Speakers Properties box which opens, switch to the Enhancements tab, select the Disable all enhancements check box.

Now try to play your audio device. Does it work? If so great!

If the method fails, select Cancel to go back to the Sound Properties box again. Now on the Playback tab, select another default device (if you have one), select the Disable all enhancements check box, and try to play audio again.

Do this for each default device.

Windows 10 No Enhancements Tab For Audio

This is how you can completely disable or turn off Audio Enhancements in Windows 10.

Remember, you can always enable any enhancements disabled earlier if you feel the sound quality is not up to the mark. The enhancements enabled under the “Enhancements” tab are artificial software enhancements. If you prefer to use enhancements, you should select those that are included with your sound card software instead, as they provide more settings to adjust the sound quality.
