Hi, Next time you get the trainer to do the audio on make sure to do a checkpoint here. I also seem to remember Windows Server Essentials resets the audio state but not sure. I don't think I ever had the audio service set to disabled at all on Server Standard.

Was using windows server 2019, and on a second server, using windows narrator and nvda. Don't have a jaws remote licence. Now, did a domain controller and the wizard worked on server manager. Did a sign out and reboot. Would not give any speech when it rebooted. Just said input capture caps lock on and off. Then did a hard reboot. Then it said some thing about check points. Thought they were meaning reset or revert checkpoints. Did not realise. Clicked on continue, then reverted back to having the audio and not automatic. So have to wait till Monday for my trainer to set up the audio services again. Pity there's no script or setting where windows server or where narrator detects you have a server running, then gives audio back from the client to the server. And also no speech when doing a reboot, for a domain controller and any other tasks, that needs a reboot. Any one encountered this issue. Cannot use be my eyes or aira, as don't have a ios or android device. Only windows laptop. Any one , tried searching for a script or a power shell command. To run that you have to be in the server, then run it. Did try net start audiosv but did not work. Any work arounds. Annoying. If need to create servers in the future, no keyboard short cut, unless have then to memorise which is a pain.
