Default Outlets went out but no breaker is tripped

I have some outlets and a light switch that have stopped working in
one room.


None of the breakers are tripped.


All I can think of is to shut off and then back on one breaker at a
time to isolate which one controls the non-functioning outlets and
switch.


Any feedback appreciated.

I agree with that attempt. *Sometimes, not often, a breaker will trip and
fail to show it fully.

Checking every GFIC in the house is also a good thing to do because this
portion of the circuit might be after a GFIC that has tripped.

If neither of those solve the problem then you have to trace the circuit
looking for a loose connection.

Thanks.

I flipped all the breakers and the circuits are still dead.
I will check the GFCIs.
