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 ?

Tried but no successs with updating using Iso!
After rollback windows gives this message:
Yes, that is exactly what can happen with a lot of devices. I myself just tried to brute force the Win 10 2004 update with an ISO. but the installation was interrupted at a letter stage. You just can't tell when the installation will get interrupted at which stage, let alone having success in installing the 2004 update.
I have successfully installed the update a while back by replacing the Conexant drivers with generic Microsoft drivers and then waited for 2-3 days for the Win Update notification.
A lot of people have experienced a lot of different situations regarding this update hack. but to me getting the 2004 update through Windows Update is by far the best way that will ensure nothing will go wrong while the update process.
The most frustrating part is to update to the 2004 version, coz after that Microsoft just seems to ignore the Conexant driver situation and will offer the next 20H2 and all subsequent cumulative 20H2 updates.
The best part is that, after the 2004 upgrade prior to getting the 20H2 update, Optional Windows Update offered me the long-awaited Conexant driver update that is according to Microsoft compatible with 2004 and the later versions.
That is what my experience is so far.
