    By 'audio card', I mean whatever your audio device happens to be. I have no separate card either, it is integrated in my mainboard. But if you have NO audio device at all in device manager, that is an entirely different problem from what most of us here are dealing with. If that is the case, I would go into the bios and check your audio device settings there. Possibly disable audio, reboot into Windows, then back into the bios, enable the audio device and reboot into Windows. Windows should then detect the new device and install drivers for it. You have a problem that is difficult to correct in an Internet forum, perhaps you should bring it to a local computer shop for repair.

    Where did you find a different driver? Using the Microsoft Store only opens the existing Realtek software. There is no option to download a different driver.

    This also doesn't work form me... I tried all kinds of troubleshooting and even after installing the KB5050094, it still didn't work.

    When I "test" the realtek driver, on the settings, it shows a warning saying that "It is being used by other application". However, there's never any app running at the same time. Does someone know what it may be?
