I've had a trawl back through Dona's tweets and can't see anything.

IIRC, it wasn't a tweet from Dona, and someone posted the tweet in TF. Still hoping I'm wrong, though!

Edit: Maybe from the "Gentle" lady?

Nope, nor Jason.

I copied this from Windows Ten Forum:

Workaround is the same as was years ago (information is from

old thread at MS forums

, posted by 3juan and RajithR):

1. Select IDT High Definition Audio CODEC on Device Manager.
2. Select Driver tab.
3. Click Update Driver... button.
4. Select -> Browse my computer for driver software.
5. Select -> Let me pickup a list of device drivers on my computer.
6. Select High Definition Audio Device (Not IDT High Def... this is important.) and click Next.
Appears Warning message, but reply Yes.
7. ! Windows has successfully update your driver software.

Yes, this worked for me and for @Wynona. Originally posted by AnderTen. There were a number of people who were not able to get this to work. Wynona and I happen to have IDT sound card in the system in which it worked.

@Wynona, you try to scare us?
Your sound is back, but mine and @Kado's didn't, so... please don't scare us.

You know, I thought I saw a similar post from Dona.

I'm in agreement, smactilactus, except that I take the tiles off since they don't add anything. I think the Store is the least valuable app in Windows; who wants to pay for some of the apps that are free elsewhere? I can't remember which one it was now, but I declined.

As to the icons, most of what I use is third party and has its own icons. . . which are just there. If need be, I can go in and change 'em to something else. I have special icons for my data and external drives. Other than that, I just leave 'em alone.

Or you could customize safely by installing an IPACK from deviantart, changing to a plethora of icons system-wide, It usually changes only two or three system files which are then restored and overwritten once windows upgrades take place.

Errrr, ummm, what'm I tryin' ta skeer ya wif?

Well, it doesn't look like you and Keith are the only ones without proper sound, emilcioran99. Going to Feedback and following the yellow brick road, I find lots of sound problems with 18298; 137 reports and upvotes, so far, and there are more when I dig deeper.

Feedback Hub - Windows Insider

Edit: I also commented somewhere, but can't find it now, giving the workaround from 2015 for the IDT cards. That should help quite a few folks. Thanks again, @Andre10.
