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

    Hello Jonathan,

    Thanks for hanging in here with me. So I'm checking my Windows 11 level first before I do anything else.

    Also what is the Disk Read Verify, the previous picture I sent you showed up as failed, and now it shows passed, also if realtek is saying it passed as well, why is it not showing up to turn the sound back on? Why does it keep saying no audio device is installed? Just a couple questions before I do anymore updates or fixes.

    Thanks Again. I honestly can not thank you enough.

    Everything is showing up as passed now

    Audio Driver is installed and up to date

    The Realtek driver that is appearing is related to the Realtek network driver.

    Ok. It looks like my Windows us up to date. So, I guess I don't need to do the repair and update?
