Realtek Audio Console REQUIRES a Realtek HD (UAD) Driver!!

Have a question. Can you use DDU to completely uninstall and remove audio drivers and app components to do a fresh install of updated audio drivers?

Yep. You can safely do it.

Realtek Audio Console REQUIRES a Realtek HD (UAD) Driver!! So true!

But I do have a UAD driver, but not a Realtek Audio Control.... as described in the thread:
No Audio Control Application in Dell Precision 3560

Any ideas....????

Looking at your software components, your Dell computer uses the waves maxxaudio pro app.

Thank you for your answer...but I haven't been able to locate it in my PC...anywhere!
I suppose I should go searching for it in the DELL Support site

Have you run Microsoft Store to see if it will pull app?

Yep! It hasn't pulled it up

Did you pnputil dx_dellbcext_waves_ma8mv5.inf, hdx_dellbcext_dsp.inf and dellaudioextwaves.inf --- and then run Microsoft Store?

No need to do that. The 3 extensions are already installed, as you can see from the following output of PS script.

Code:

Hiy

Can anyone help with my surface pro 4 UWP set up? i tried Cliff S way of doing a complete uninstall with Driver Store Explorer to remove the old Realtek high definition audio SST driver but i cant seen to find a driver that can run on my system. do i have to install the UAD driver first then the Realtek audio control driver from the microsoft store?

Should i start with the Realtek UAD Driver 6.0.9254.1 from majorgeeks?
