Everything seems well set and all buttons are “On” but Nahimic’s audio effects don’t seem to work, I can’t hear any difference!

It’s possible that your Windows® audio settings disabled all audio effects on your device. To turn them on, just follow these instructions:

1 - On your Windows® taskbar, right-click on the volume icon.
2 - Click on Playback devices or Recording devices, depending on the devices you are interested in. Playback devices are audio devices, like speakers or headphones. Recording devices are capture devices, like microphones. You may have to apply these instructions to both.
3 - Right click on your current default device and click on Properties.
4 - Click on the Enhancements tab and make sure the disabling audio effects option is unchecked.

Nahimic’s audio effects should now run normally.

A few years ago I rejected Nahimic due to constant problems. Today I tested Nahimic, hoping the software is better than earlier. But no, the same issues persist year after year. I went back to Equalizer APO which is very light, using only one core, and very versatile and powerful eq.

My man, I can't even get Equalizer APO to work haha.

In your Sound Device's Properties, Under the Advanced tab, Make sure "Enable Audio Enhancements" is Checked, in order to Allow Nahimic to Process Audio. This is the only thing that worked for me after checking every other option.

Hello from Russia!
Nahimic effects didn't work for me either. I tried different ways, reinstalled drivers a hundred times, but nothing helped.
But the following helped me: Open the MSI Center>Feature sets(The upper right corner of MSI Center's page)>Sound Tune>Install this feature and check it again>Set the checkboxes as on the screenshot.
After rebooting everything worked.
