Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version [2]

Anyone knows where I can find the latest driver for my Realtek audio card ALC255. I now run on Acer's latest driver 6.0.8865.1 that has been substituted/modified by MS with a generic driver that works OK but speakers have low volume. I have also tried a later version 6.0.8942.1 that also works but Windows 20H2 update rolled that back to the original 6.0.8865.1. Major BSOD issues have been reported with incompatible Realtek sound drivers on the Acer support site so I am not keen to change my current MS generic setup as my integrated Intel UHD drivers also control the sound, just curious if there is a newer Realtek set with proper audio controls like an equalizer and Loudness booster. Another issue I have with my earphone jack that when I unplug in a 3.5mm jack (without mike) my Acer Aspire 5 laptop shuts down (no event errors other than "Unexpected Shutdown). When I use a 3 ring TRRS jack earphone with a mike no issues when unplugging. The 2 ring (3 contacts) earphone works OK (is recognized by Windows and Realtek CP) but somehow crashes (shuts down windows) when unplugging the jack and that worries me a bit as that may indicate a driver issue?
My sound card is

Thanks @MoKiChU
I did that (Acer driver site, legacy bundle, see my original post) and MS replaced that with an UAD driver

I don't know if this is the best option for my system.

You are wrong, last Realtek Audio Drivers from your notebook support page (6.0.8865.1) is not an HDA/Legacy drivers package, but an UAD/DCH drivers package (UAD - Acer RTK NB), as indicated previously.

Good, so that would mean I have the latest RTK drivers and that MS just added some additional audio drivers for 20H2?

Until now I'm still stuck and comfortable at 9088.1
not interested in changing the version for now ... maybe I will test if there is already published v9188.1 or v9195.1

Hi everyone,
- Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASRock/MSI/GIGABYTE MB | Update Only) :

Drivers : 6.0.9137.1 WHQL [24/03/2021]

OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit 1803/RS4/17134.x or more recent.
Hardware requirements : ASRock/MSI/GIGABYTE motherboards with Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD).

Hi MokiChu , the consensus seems to be here that 9137 is the best driver currently but for some reason
I can no longer find the Link to your MSI Update only package for my new MSI Gaming Edge Wifi Motherboard,
which is on UAD 9102 currently.

Can you please re-post or re-link the 9137 files please,

( I'd like to put them on my Asus G732 laptop as well too please , you post on the ROG Forums is already at 9147)

Thanks,

Yeah I missed them as well for Gigabyte. I am still on 9075 on my x570 master and would love to test the 9137 as it is supposed to sound better than the new 9147.

9137 for MSI. I didn't register an account there so I hope the link stays alive long enough for you to get it.
6.0.9137.1

MokiChu has messaged me to say he removes "old" files/links and only offers his latest packages ( 9147 currently) at any time
