Directly install Realtek* High Definition Audio Driver from the link below.
It will automatically uninstall your drivers and install new ones.
This one worked for me after nearly trying for 2 days straight https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19455/realtek-high-definition-audio-driver-for-windows-10-64-bit-for-intel-nuc-kits-mini-pcs-nuc6cay.html

It didn't work for you. What you did was incorrectly install some random driver from Intel, which causes the windows os into installing windows generic audio driver.
Intel's realtek driver is for Intel NUC only. Do you have this Intel NUC computer? No, so why are you installing the Intel NUC driver? Intel has to make a special FAQ page to shut down people like you telling other people to install their intel nuc driver on some other company's computers.

Acer's realtek driver is for acer computer only.
I hope everyone doesn't overlook this answer. It is incredible that MS would disable hardware as part of the Windows 11 upgrade. I was looking in a million threads and was focused on drivers. I almost missed this answer - Kudos!
Thank You!!!!!!!!!! I have not login to my hotmail account for ages, but specially logged in to draft this reply/thank-you note....
This works immediately for me too after restart, I suspect its a combination of Windows update and intel problems as usual...
How did you managed to find this solution? Saw some YouTube troubleshoot videos that were no help plus Windows diagnostics that were next to useless....
Thanks a million Patel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't know all these technical stuff, it works for my Thinkpad.
Don't know what you so-called experts are smoking
