Windows 11 clients Volume Popups

Posted by Eberhardt74@reddit | sysadmin | View on Reddit | 4 comments

Good afternoon, we have a group of a few hundred Windows 11 units that were done as inplace upgrades from windows 10 that are getting a pop-up every time people authenticate or restart their systems.

Pop-up states that the driver for Volume has been updated and the system needs to restart in order to apply. A restart does not resolve.

We have rolled the driver back, can not find reference in re-edit and I am racking my brains as this has been ongoing since August.

Any ideas?

I would do two things
1) Try another model, see if that changes anything, then you for sure knows it's a driver issue for that specific hardware model

2) Contact your rep at HP, Dell or whatever you use, tell them you upgraded to Win11 and now get this driver issue, they might now know that their driver(s) doesn't work with Win11.

Gm, it's occurring across multiple models and Dell has asked us to wipe a machine and load with original Dell image for the unit to test otherwise its not an issue they can assist with as it would be a company image thing.

Which version of Win11 are you on? perhaps try pushing a prewiew build, just to see if it fixes the driver?

We hold back on new builds till we have them tested for env but this is a good idea.
