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 ?

    I didn't bother but that's because I a USB dock sound card and a blue tooth headset so the Conexant were fairly irrelevant to me.

    I would imagine if you ran the patch to put on the Micrsoft hi def drivers again after updating it would work - I haven't bothered.  (Unblock, apply from the link I used to MS drivers, then block again to stop windows update "improving" it back to conexant for you). I note some people have said they made the block more specific/precise and that others added the Conexant drivers anyway and said they were fine - but I note MS's text says bleu screens during and whilst running so that sounds risky.

    No not at all 😁 

    Microsoft drivers are available for your audio device if Conexant drivers a blocked by you.

    You’d better wait for an update to the official driver, tweak your windows to get the latest update just to access the few new 2004 features and you’ll regret this one day or another when your os will become unstable

    just a quick question, after doing all the steps so you block the download for the Conexant, etc. when you finally put 2004, then will it update that or you end up with no audio, etc? but you just "got" 2004?

    So a "solution" perhaps for those who don;t need their sound card!

    does it mean that you end up with no audio?

    Thanks for your clear instructions. they worked perfectly for me. 

    After I updated I reloaded the Conexant drive and all was good.

    For note I have a Lenovo Ideapad 300 running Windows 10 Pro.
