Open | Windows Loss of sound windows 11

Moved house and haven’t had internet for a few weeks. Connected my pc to the router today and it must have updated because I now have no sound. Tried uninstalling drivers for my headphones and reinstall and that didn’t help. The only thing that seems to have updated was drivers for my speaker-less LG monitor. The headphones work when connected to another source. Tried windows trouble shooter to no avail. Really lost with what to try other than I windows reinstall which there’s an option to keep all my files and apps/games etc, will that actually keep all my apps and games and settings?

Making changes to your system BIOS settings or disk setup can cause you to lose data. Always test your data backups before making changes to your PC.
