与Windows 10^{(Windows 10)}一样出色，它肯定会遇到大量问题，例如音频服务^{(audio service)}未运行。此问题会阻止您的 PC 通过内置扬声器甚至通过连接的耳机提供任何声音输出。它由任务栏中扬声器图标^{(speaker icon in the Taskbar)}右下角的一个小红叉图标^{(tiny red cross icon)}标记。将鼠标指针^{(mouse pointer)}悬停在此十字上会显示Windows 10 上的错误消息：^{(error message)}音频服务未运行。^{(The audio service is not running. )}它可能会影响您在YouTube 上^(YouTube)疯狂观看您最喜爱的创作者的新视频的计划。我们为您带来了一个完美的指南，可以帮助您修复^{(Windows audio)}Windows 10电脑上的Windows 音频服务没有响应或音频噼啪声错误。

如何修复音频服务未在 Windows 10 上运行^{(How to Fix The Audio Service Is Not Running on Windows 10)}

Windows 10用户经常遇到音频服务错误^{(service error)}，因此已经找到了几种解决方案。您可以在 Microsoft 文档中阅读有关Windows 音频架构的信息^{(Windows Audio Architecture on Microsoft docs)}。以下是可能导致此问题的一些原因：

• 此问题源于非活动的 Windows 音频服务^{(inactive Windows Audio service)}。
• 该服务可能已意外停止，或者它可能无法在启动时启动^{(failed to start at boot)}。
• 在其他一些情况下，音频驱动程序^{(audio drivers)}或硬件本身可能有问题。

本文介绍了解决有关音频服务未运行 Windows 10 的问题的所有方法。

初步检查^{(Preliminary Checks)}

• 在继续之前，我们建议您重新启动 PC^{(restart your PC)}并检查音频服务问题^{(service issue)}是否存在。如果出现临时故障或^{(glitch or imperfect)} 系统重启^{(system restart)}不完善，则很有可能发生错误。
• 您还可以尝试将Windows 10启动到安全模式，以确保音频问题不是由第三方应用程序引起的。如果是，则卸载此类应用程序。
• 虽然，解决上述错误的最简单方法之一是简单地增加或减少音量^{( increase or decrease the volume)}。这个漂亮的技巧如何解决^{(trick fix)}这个问题仍然令人着迷且未知，但许多用户确实使用它解决了他们的音频问题。要调节电脑音量^{(computer volume)}，

1. 单击任务栏中的扬声器图标^{( Speaker icon)}。

2. 向任一方向拖动随后的音量滑块^{(volume slider)}。

注意：^(Note:)向左拖动滑块将减小音量，而向右拖动滑块将增大音量。

如果是你的幸运日，电脑大神和你一样，红十字会消失，音频输出^{(audio output)}会恢复。如果没有，请一个接一个地执行以下解决方案，直到可怕的红十字不复存在。

方法 1：运行播放音频疑难解答^{(Method 1: Run Playing Audio Troubleshooter)}
