Hi Kamil,
I found a fix for no Sound/Audio on Windows 10! (Conexant SmartAudio HD). So the old sound driver could be not compatible with Windows 10. Go to update the sound driver could be helpful to resolve the problem. The easy way to upgrade the driver is updating in Device Manager. But, it is recommended Driver Talent to you.
Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.
I will be glad to help you with the issue you have with the computer. I understand the frustration when things don't work the way it should.
Please answer the following for us to understand the issue better:
What is the make and model of your computer?
The issue could be because of incompatible sound drivers on the computer.
I suggest you to check in the manufacturer's website if you have sound drivers available for Windows 10.

Computer: Lenovo G500 with standard (for these devices) specification.
I downloaded drivers from Lenovo's website (latest versions).
Sound of my computer was perfect but yesterday (after update i think) it crashed. I think that drivers are ok, but there is something wrond with Windows 10.
W10 is changing devices' options without user's knowledge.
I tried to find solution on the Internet but ther is only one statement - to check if drivers are ok. And this is not fixing the problem.
I don't know what is happening because my computer is working fine but after 3 or 4 weeks it crashes beacuse of Windows uptades... It's not only sound... GPU is crashing with the same frequency...

You are experiencing this problem as Lenovo doesn't have drivers for Windows 10. I suggest you to download the available Windows 8.1 drivers and install them in compatibility mode form the link below:

Lenovo Conexant Audio Driver Windows 10
Thanks for your feedback.
Damn... I don't want to be rude, but I wrote twice... I have good drivers... latest version from Lenovo.
There is problem with sound or GPU after every single W10 update.
I have tried to reinstall drivers 5 times yesterday and it finally worked... 'till today. Right now i have no sound device in device menager.
Windows' tool for searching for problems with device found 'problem with sound device' - oh great... i didn't know.
I'm really sorry, but my frustration is reaching the highest level right now...
@edit:
I did nothing. NOTHING, and problem was fixed... don't know why, don't know how.
OK, it is working for now... But in the past there were same problems. I don't want them in the future.
