I can not hear anything - otherwise Sound work fine.<br />
Also when i go to playback and go through the configuration - all is fine - I can here test sounds.<br />
<br />
I tried to run sfc /scannow and all finishes fine.<br />
removed Audio Device and reinstalled - same all works but Default Windows Sounds.<br />
I thought that possibly the user profile is corrupted - so i set yup new user just to test and the same behavior.<br />
<br />
Any idea how to fix.

Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system featuring the "universal application architecture" (UAP); apps can be designed to run across multiple devices with nearly identical code, including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and HoloLens. Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.
