How do I get my Realtek Audio Driver back on my HP laptop?

Anonymous

How do I get my Realtek Audio Driver back on my HP laptop? It has completely disappeared. It is no longer in the Device Driver to add back or update. Ive tried to find the device driver by going to to device manager there is no audio to choose from and when I go down to the sound it only shows Bluetooth devices that are not in use anymore.

Thank you

Try this last solution.

Click on the start menu and type Device Manager, open it

Click on Sound, video and game controllers.

Click on the Action menu > Add drivers

Select Browse... and Go to the folder "C:\SWSetup\SP149476"

Click on Ok and then next.

Wait until the drivers are added and see if the audio driver is installed.

If it is not added automatically.

Click Action again > Add Legacy Hardware.

Next > Install the hardware that I manually select from a list > Sound, video and game controllers.

Select Realtek in Manufacturer and see if there are any drivers to select on the right side.

While processing my computer ran into a problem and shut down and restarted on its own.
