Can't change volume through Windows volume mixer.

Post by Kotopup »

For some reason I'm unable to modify the volume through windows volume mixer. If i try to lower it, it instantly snaps back to 100 volume.
I've got a volume mixer on my desk that lets me control volume of other apps so it's kind of annoying that i can't do it for only this game.

Running windows 11 home.
Any ideas? Anyone else have similar issue?

Same thing with Windows 10 Pro. It's not a new thing though; I believe it's been like that since launch. Not a big thing for me, but it is a thing.

I had a sinilar problem with other progs. I am using Win11.
A small free prog FxSound from FxSound.com fixed the problem.

This program doesn't let me control program volumes at all.
