How to disable Volume Mixer in Windows 10

0

I want to disable the Volume Mixer so that my volume is controlled by one slider. Is that possible?

enter image description here

I'm sick of turning on my main volume really high to hear YouTube, only to switch to another program (like a video game) and lose my hearing, then realized it was because the volume mixer set my Chrome to 5% but my game to 100%. I'm not even sure how the volume mixer gets set because it gets overridden by other programs (and I don't know when that happens).

IT appears when you manually set a volume it will stay relative to the Speakers volume like this enter image description here

What You can do is set all the volumes to 100% then when you move the speakers volume slider it should change all of them like this

Let me know if this solves your issue. Is it also only chromes volume that is offset?

Ya, I know about this trick but it was looking for a way to disable it completely or better yet have a simple button that resets/sync all the levels to the main volume. This method isn't ideal if music or sound is already playing on your computer (unless you want to go deaf at 100% volume for a brief second). Thanks though. – hobbes3 – 2018-06-27T20:35:49.350
