2025-02-04T03:33:36+00:00 Please don't insult us with canned answers. Most of the users know how to do them and every audio question has the same answeres. How about telling us what to do when the tool says it can't find a problem so it must be the driver yet the driver is the most current driver available and is the manufacturer's most current release and there is no roll back release?
The problem is the Windows update broke what wasn't broken so how about Microsoft fixing the issue before suggesting solutions that just waste time? Common sense dictates that if everything was working fine for months on end and the OS gets updated and they suddenly don't work, don't point at the Realtek audio driver. Look under your own hood first.

Just select the Update driver then select from drivers from my computer,
and use the High Definition Audio driver.
Done.

This is disrespectful.
Before you complain here, you should read the posts carefully.
And Yes, Look under your own hood first.
As I wrote recently, after weeks of searching in various communities, one has to find out again and again
that the cause of the various errors is the MS update from 23H2 to 24H2.
A return from 24H2 to 23H2 (also the update of various drivers) should not be seen as a final solution.
As in other areas of life, the polluter pays principle should also apply here.
Therefore, MS should be helpful in finding a solution, best in cooperation with the PC/laptop manufacturer (in a quick manner), since Windows 11, version 24H2 was already released on October 2024 (if I am not mistaken).
Now I'm leaving the chat.
Thank you.
