8522 was released, but of course it's not on MUC...
Anyhow, I have some info regarding why Microsoft are releasing less and less updates for Realtek HD Audio drivers.
I was told they are gradually phasing out these kinds of updates that still work for older operating systems such as Windows 7.
This is why there are more and more updates for the UAD, Universal Audio Driver, being released. Generally, the UAD works with newer operating systems and PCs.
From Realtek's end, they are well aware of many people still using Windows 7. As a result, they are still offering updates for the HD Audio Driver (which of course also work for Windows 10). But, they are making them available through other websites. As a side note: It would be nice if Realtek actually offered these updates via their own website.
