My Audacity is way too quiet

All of a sudden, today, all of my recordings are so compressed, so quiet and my waveform is so small and I didn’t do anything!! It’s set at 41000 16 bit. I have a focusrite 2I2. I didn’t change anything their either. What do I do? I have a new audiobook project and cannot complete it.

Help!

Windows update can reset “audio enhancements” to default, which is on. Windows recording & playback enhancements must be disabled for faithful recording & playback.
