0:43 Part 1: What’s the Windows 11 Media Player New Feature?
First things first; let’s talk about the Windows 11 media player features that every Windows fan is talking about and how they make the user experience better.
With Windows 11 media player, you get a dedicated “video enhancement” feature that lets users control different visual parameters such as brightness, contrast, highlights, etc. With this functionality at your disposal, you can easily control the display quality of your videos and make them look more appealing.
In addition to this, managing content in Windows 11 has become way more convenient as users can now separate their favorite tracks into dedicated libraries and access them right from the home screen. In a nutshell, Microsoft is on a mission to regain control in the world of “media players” by making WMP more user-friendly.
While these features work fine in most cases, they have also become a major reason behind a common error, i.e., “no sound in Windows Media Player”. Of course, there are several other factors that can trigger this error, some of which include:

● The audio drivers on your system are outdated
● You have accidentally unplugged the speakers from your system

2:12 Part 3: 5 Solutions to Fix Windows 11 Media Player No Sound
1. Reconnect Your Speakers
Now, before we perform any advanced solutions, let’s start with something simple. First and foremost, make sure that your speakers are properly connected to the system.
If it’s a wired speaker, remove the wires and reconnect them to ensure that they are properly connected. Similarly, if you’re using a Bluetooth speaker, turn it off and reconnect it after a while. In many cases, this simple trick will be enough to resolve the no sound error in Windows 10.
2. Make Sure You’re Not Muted
Sometimes, if there’s no sound coming through the speakers, it’s quite possible that you have accidentally muted your system. To do this, all you have to do is open the Windows media player and adjust the volume levels at the bottom control panel.
While you’re at it; check the volume knob on your speakers as well and make sure it’s not set at the lowest volume levels. In case you’re not muted and still unable to hear any sounds from Windows Media Player, move to the next solution.
3. Install Missing Codecs
Codecs are basically backend software programs that read the audio signals and convert them into playable tracks - that eventually users hear from speakers. To download missing codecs, click on “Tools” and select “Options”. Then, go to the “Players” tab and make sure to mark the “Download codecs automatically”. That’s it; Windows Media Player will automatically start downloading the missing codecs and you’ll be able to play your video files without any hassle.
4. Reinstall Windows Media Player
Navigate to Apps - Apps & features - Manage optional features and then, click on “Add a Feature”. Select Windows Media Player from the list and tap “Install”. That’s it; your Windows system will automatically start installing the latest version of Windows Media Player and you’ll be able to enjoy uninterrupted entertainment sessions.
And, that’s everything you need to know about resolving the Windows 11 media player no sound error. If you’ve been seeing this error for a while, we hope this video helped you resolve the problem.
