The only playback device is Realtek High Definition Speakers. The volume id set to 100%. Are those speakers where you are trying to listen? Right-click in that window in empty space and choose "Show disabled devices" then right-click again and choose "Show Disconnected Devices"....

Make sure Audacity is still set to
Host: MME
Recording device: Microsoft Sound Mapper - Input
Playback device: Microsoft Sound Mapper - Output

Post the Help > Audio Device Info... again with Audacity set as above.

The Win 7 recording is too loud, so clips, which is not unexpected because Windows 7 tends to add more gain to USB aud...

This seems one of those cases where the AUP file did not complete saving, so is truncated. Did Audacity or this project seem to close normally when you last closed it? Did you power off the instant you saved the project? The only way I think we'll open the project is to remove from the AUP file the ...

The attached image file shows what happens when I attempt to open the 'program'; that popup window is following by two more such windows with other warning statements. I've m...
