Determine the HDA Realtek driver needed for your Audio

The problem seems to be a “file not found” one.

So, please follow these steps:

1. Download the .ps1 file from here and save it any place you want.
2. Go to the folder you saved it, right click on the file, unblock it and then copy it [Ctrl-C]. If it’s saved in your Downloads folder, skip step 3
3. Then go to your Downloads folder and paste it [Ctrl-V] there.
4. Open Powershell as Administrator.
5. Type the command Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force
6. Type the command cd $env:USERPROFILE\Downloads
7. Type the command .\RealtekAudioDriverIntegration.ps1

If everything fails, do the following:

1. Download the .ps1 file from here and save it any place you want in your C: drive.
2. Open Powershell as Administrator.
3. Type the command Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force
4. Type the command dir C:\ "RealtekAudioDriverIntegration.ps1" -Recurse -ea 0 | Unblock-File
5. Type the command dir C:\ "RealtekAudioDriverIntegration.ps1" -Recurse -ea 0 | select -First 1 | % { & $_.FullName }

Then post the results here.

It worked!

Do you know (now) if this is the actual driver that i want to install over the UDA or in place of those? Because
the name includes hdx and ... base.inf (if that's another name or is the same as the powershell hdxrtbase.inf?

You have a DCH (UAD) driver installed and not the legacy HDA one.
The file needed for your driver is the hdxrtbase.inf and that’s the one you have installed and the one needed for every update.
To see what’s installed, I would suggest to look at this post Determine the DCH (UAD) Realtek driver needed for your Audio, now that you’re more familiar with PowerShell
To update follow this very detailed tutorial Tutorial for updating DCH/UAD drivers

Wow-that tutorial's pretty mighty. I'm slowly trying to absorb and have re-read it. One thing i got to an Intel graphics driver link, and it updated the graphics driver. I'm still stuck in the UAD drivers not legacy so i can't call HDA. And so, with the given is it that I need to take my .inf driver found that I have and match up to the site where the MUC catalog is and obtain the driver from there while still being under the umbrella of manufacturer's Lenovo sound driver?
I may have confused you with my confusion of the question. Apologize in advance.

You don’t need a Lenovo driver from MUC. It’s good if there is one, but it’s not a prerequisite for updating..
The only prerequisite is the .cab file you download from MUC to contain the hdxrtbase.inf file you need for your installation.

Try to read carefully the tutorial. It’s actually very easy, once you understand it.

I thank you, ddelo and anyone here that's genuinely good people trying to help or (almost) teach your expertise. I'll read the tutorial Determine again as I'm still kind of fogged on it, but just keep trying. *

I don't mean to drive you baddy, but when i got to the microsoft catalog and punched in my #it's showing me a series of the drivers same date and byte size and since I'm sticking with win. 10, i thought to exclude the windows 11 package. As the goal is to have the Audio Manager installed-back and those other drivers. Do you think one of these packages are suitable over the other or...? THANKS really!
