Deffender has installed an update for me yesterday that prevents me from
playing ANY sound with any application... music files, video files play but

normal sounds of beeps and boops though... I tried to roll back my computer
and succeded but defender updated itself again without my permission... now
i have no rollback point and still no sound... I'm completely lost....
