Updating to Windows 10 Version 2004/Conexant Drivers

Anonymous

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 ?

    Problem solved!!

    Everything working like a charm. In my opinion, the only reason why GNU/Linux is not for everyone is just because it does not come pre-installed in every system.

    Good luck to you all.

    Best regards,

    Miguel

    BTW, you can see the caps indicator on the rop-right corner. You can see if the caps lock key is activated without having to press it just to see the anoying icon right in the middle of the screen (take note Lenovo guys).

    Cheers

    I am not sure if links can be posted, but trying,

    Follow this link. And be prepared with all the steps beforehand.

    Because you will have to

    1. disable internet
    2. uninstall the conexant driver
    3. restart PC
    4. get the device hardware Id
    5. perform group policy/registry edit.

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/146562-prevent-windows-update-updating-specific-device-driver.html

    With the above steps, windows update wont be able to install the conexant drivers even if it tries.

    Additional steps -

    I did not want those driver files downloaded on my system at all.

    So as soon as you enable internet, run the Microsoft tool "wushowhide.diagcab" from below link and disable the Conexant update.
