Click on the speaker icon, click mixer. Check your volumes, emphasis on the S, since each app can be controlled individually.
also remember the speakers probably have their own volume control. And if you go into Control Panel, Sounds, properties of your speaker, Levels tab there’s MORE volume control.
It’s amazing how many different ways there are to accidentally turn your speakers off.
Every time the Windows 10 update appears on my screen, I push the snooze button to send it away. I got out of windows 10 after it showed up like a virus on my system one day. It was awful.
Go to Control Panel and then Device Manager.
Click on the little symbol next to Bluetooth. If there are no yellow or red warning sign that means it is probably something simple.
Check to make sure volume is turned up and not muted.
Did you reboot after the updates?
It could be you need to check or reinstall your Bluetooth driver.
I'm no expert that those are some starting points.
You may need to go to the bluetooth speaker manufacturer web site and get their latest driver for your OS.
You indicate you purchased a new speaker, to no avail. Have you considered purchasing a new PC?
It reminds my of the guy who stuck his fingers in his snow blower because it got jammed. He was surprised to see the tip of his finger come off. Using that logic, he's lucky he didn't stick his head in, instead. You say,"That's crazy. Why would he stick his head in there?"
I say, "For exactly the same reason he would stick his hand in there."
Now you know.
Is the screen really blue?
De Debble made me do it.

Can you do a system restore to a date before the latest updates were installed?
It looks like you lost your keyboard as well.
Disable and then re engage the Bluetooth connection....they can and do get lost
It’s still capable of working, just some config problem.
Right click on the windows icon in the lower left to left click on ‘mobility center’. Bluetooth is an option and you should be able to get the solution from there.
What I did(It worked);
1. “Fell Back” prior to latest MS “Update”
2. Re-loaded the update
3. Got rid of ALL Bluetooth devices.
4. Re-Paired and downloaded all Bluetooth Drivers.
5. Re-Booted the computer.
6. WALLA IT WORKED!
Thank You everyone for the help!
Try buying another speaker.
I had a frustrating experience with bluetooth speakers for my Windows 7 pc. They would not connect so I brought them back to Bestbuy and got another of the same model. Same result. I took them back again and the clerk at the return counter said they should connect but he was unable to connect to the stores wireless. I picked out another different model. Same result.
I PLUGGED then in and they work....
At work we get calls from co-workers using Samsung Tab tablets that use bluetooth keyboards. They get disconnected and this using the android OS.
In short I think it is the bluetooth standards that are not very good.
