Printer offline, no sound, mic dead in meetings, Bluetooth acting up — Fixato reads the device's real state and names the mechanism in plain words. Like why sound works everywhere except in meetings.
Windows keeps two separate audio defaults — one for everything, one for communications. When your meetings point at a screen with no speakers, sound "works everywhere except in Zoom". That's the kind of specific mechanism Fixato reads and explains, instead of a generic troubleshooter's shrug.
Device-state queries: spooler and print queues, audio endpoints and both default roles, Bluetooth radio and service, the three stacked privacy switches governing camera/mic, and device-level driver errors. Repairs restart the responsible Windows service — after the reading says it's the suspect.
The real state first: which printer Windows actually picks, where your meeting audio really points, which privacy switch is off.
All read-only. Each repair below is only proposed after one of these readings points at the culprit.
Whether Windows sees the printer offline, what's stuck in its queue, and which printer is actually set as default — often not the one you think.
Named toolget_printers_status
Windows keeps two: default output and default communications. Reading both is exactly how "sound works everywhere except in meetings" gets solved.
Named toollist_audio_devices
The three stacked switches — including the desktop-applications one that governs Zoom, Teams and browsers — checked one by one.
Named toolget_privacy_permissions
Whether the radio is on, the service is running, and what's paired — the difference between "broken" and "switched off".
Named toolget_bluetooth_status
Whether Windows reports the device itself as failing at the driver level — the deeper cause behind all of the above.
Named toollist_driver_problems
Each name above is one of Fixato's named tools. The agent picks from that closed list — it can't type a command of its own. The complete list is published with the licence.
Each restart follows a reading that names the service as the suspect, and asks for your confirmation first.
Unsticks a jammed print system. Fixato reads the queue first and tells you plainly: restarting clears the pending jobs, for good — you decide with that fact on the table.
Named toolrestart_print_spooler
Brings sound back when the Windows audio service is the measured suspect — not a blind first move.
Named toolrestart_audio_service
Restarts the Bluetooth service when the reading says it's stuck — your pairings are not touched.
Named toolrestart_bluetooth
Flips the exact privacy switch that was blocking one named app — never a blanket "allow everything".
Named toolset_app_permission
Each name above is one of Fixato's named tools. The agent picks from that closed list — it can't type a command of its own. The complete list is published with the licence.
