Now I hear you can use WASAPI and loopback to do it. Hooray. Downloaded the version 2.0.5 for my Win7 laptop ...

You don't get What U Hear with Win 7. i guess that's what you mean.

Stereo Mix is enabled but not working. Lots of people seem to have the same problem, judging by the net.

i just don't get why it's suddenly happened. It feels like it should be curable!

I don't understand some of this - 'upgrades?' for one. Unless you mean that the usual windows upgrades have stuffed it up like they usually do. Haven't had any recently.
