Fuck Windows 10

Just fuck it

Another update, the audio won't play using the correct device again.

Says headphones, but plays through speakers, simple things like that every day. Now spend 30 min diagnosing why...

Just fuck it

I don't doubt your problem, it's just that I'm surprised at the number of rants about Windows 10 problems like this. I almost never have had any on multiple types of machines. Maybe I'm just lucky.

@monkeyboy perhaps bound to a certain sound card/drivers like Intel and Realtek

You should still be thankfull that youbare on windows. My ubuntu machine randomly freezes atleast 5 times a day, atleast 5 random shut downs a week and it stutters like hell on a fairly good config!!

Reverts driver... fixed, another few days of audio functionality in the OS, what a win

@Kimmax Exactly my reaction... I thought, shortage of some applications aside, trying out ubuntu would be light and smooth experience... Guess I was in for a huge surprise..

@DangerousDev Try a different distro.
Not everything is compatible with everything.

That's the one area microsoft does well in, and not really because of their efforts: hardware and firmware developers ensure their products work with windows. By contrast, Linux devs try to add support for hardware themselves, often without help from the prosuct manufacturers/developers themselves.
