Updating to Windows 10 Version 2004/Conexant Drivers

So what do people with computers with Conexant drivers do? Windows Update says update drivers but there are none acceptable, it also says Microsoft is working on a fix ? So what do we do? If there are compatible drivers for devices using Conexant Audio where are they, how do we get them and install or replace them (I have tried everything to no avail). When does MS expect a fix ? Are persons with Conexant audio drivers computers at end of life ? Does anybody care ?

    My Lenovo T420 has "Conexant 20672 Smart Audio HD" at version 8.32.43.0" and appears to have a driver executable named "UIU64a.exe". Still stuck at 1909. This configuration is not mentioned in the MS known issues doc so I'm not sure where I stand with this problem.

    Actually you can officially use WSL2 on 1909, I discovered it months ago. It was the only feature I was waiting with 2004 but when I discovered it I forgot about 2004 

    Thanks for the tip ! They actually made a backport available on august the 20th, I must have checked before that, I suppose.

    Il just did the install following the manual procedure, it worked fine.

    Thanks, and also to @Arkhee for the updates. 7.231.4.0 looks like a step in the right direction, and, all being well, the 20H2 updates should be coming through.

    Yes, exactly my thoughts when I mentioned the update I received. Now we just have to wait until the compatibility job recognized the new driver. If I remember correctly this could take up to 3 days. I'll just wait now until I see the upgrade available in windows update. After waiting so long, a few days more is not a problem at all, having the advantage of using the usual way of the upgrade.

    I receive the latest driver update at least one week ago and I've been checking for an available update regularly.

    I suspect they are waiting for enough computers to have their drivers updated before pushing the 2004/20H2 update.

    Well, like you said, waiting a few more days now is not a problem, also if you're not waiting for a specific feature there is no particular reason to be in a hurry IMHO, my windows 1909 is running just fine (although I'd like the WSL2 and docker ... I'm just doing fine without now).

    I'm pretty sure MS is planning to have everyone updated before 1909 end of support, that's what matters most for me.
