Home » Windows » How to fix PC volume too low in Windows 10 Low PC volume isn’t an entirely uncommon scenario in Windows. In most cases, there are relatively straightforward fixes for software sound that doesn’t match up with the Windows volume bar level.

Now we have a shortcut on our desktop which will increase a volume level on the computer after run. Of course, adjusting sound level by clicking on a shortcut is definitely not the best way to do this. That’s why it might needed to set key shortcut to perform this command. To do this, follow the instructions:

1. Computer sound volume too low. Open the “Sound” settings window. You can search for that in taskbar search box if you are using Windows 10. Otherwise, right-click on the volume icon in your system tray and select Sounds. After that, switch to Communications tab. Here, make sure Do nothing is selected. If not, select that option and save your change.
2. I had low volume on Win7, Win8/8.1 and Win10 using Realtek HD audio. Here is a fix that worked for me: Make SURE your Windows sound level is set to low before doing this!. Access the Realtek sound program. On a desktop pc the rear green connector is normally used. Right click the icon and you have 2 options.

1. Right click on created earlier shortcut and choose its Properties;
   
2. Switch to the Shortcut key field. Press keys that you want to use as a key shortcut for this command (you can use any keys, for example — Ctrl + Alt + Q);
   
3. If you want — you can assign an icon for this shortcut. To do this click on Change Icon;
4. Press ОK and save all the changes. Right after that you will get the ability to adjust sound level by using assigned key shortcut.

Tip. To make a volume level lower you need to create another shortcuts by using method as mentioned above. But this time use command changesysvolume -2000 to make volume level lower and mutesysvolume 2 to mute sound at all.
