Zoom doesn't allow me to access the audio settings

[Jap_Finch]

I can perfectly access Zoom with other devices; however, my pc won't let me even access the audio settings. So whenever I try to open a meeting, as soon as I reach the part about activating my audio, my computer is becoming really slow and it's giving me an error message (Zoom Meetings has stopped working - Hang on while Windows reports the problem to Microsoft...).  I upgraded my hardware only to some degree, but more than enough to launch games, make video calls and watch live streams. So I personaly don't believe it's a problem of my setup, even though my screen almost freezes entirely. Furthermore this problem also occurs then I open the audio settings in zoom (so without trying to participate in a meeting). 

(I just installed zoom again, so it shouldn't be a driver problem.)
