Windows 10: Dolby Audio settings are hidden after a windows reset.

My windows laptop came with pre-installed Dolby Audio and after a few months i ran into some issues, so i decided that i needed to reset my PC which i did. Immediately after that i realized that Dolby Audio had been disabled and though i was able to turn it on from the ound settings i couldn't find the audio profiles and the Dolby app for the same on my PC.

Can someone help me? Is this an issue with windows or Dolby Audio itself?

no dolby audio in system. I even visited manufacturer website and downloaded the latest audio deriver (Realtek audio according to my laptop model) but it not working. Any suggestion other than resetting windows?

 

Dolby Advanced Audio and Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio

Hi Polaris,

We appreciate you for being a part of Windows 10.

I understand that you are able to use the Dolby Digital plus Advanced Audio and not able to use the Dolby Advanced Audio.

As you get the error “Unable to start the Dolby Audio Driver. Restart the computer or reinstall the driver”, this error might occur if the driver is not installed properly or it is not up to date. I suggest you install the
Dolby audio drivers. Refer to the following article to update all the drivers available in Windows 10.

How to: Install and Update drivers in Windows
10



As the both Dolby Digital plus Advanced Audio and Dolby Advanced Audio are listed under the programs and features, you may uninstall the Dolby Advanced Audio through Programs and features.

• 
  Press Windows + X keys on the keyboard, select
  Programs and features.
  
• 
  Right click on the Dolby Advanced Audio and click on
  Uninstall.
  
• 
  Click on OK if any window prompts.
  

After uninstalling the Dolby Advanced Audio, you may reinstall it again through the setup file (If you have) or from the Dolby support.
I suggest you to refer to the suggestions provided by

Dolby Advanced Audio drivers.

Thank you.

 

Dolby Advanced Audio and Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio

I upgraded to Windows 10. On the Control Panel, both Dolby Advanced Audio and Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio are listed.

Neither one is listed in Device Manager. When I click on Dolby Advanced Audio, It says, "Unable to start the Dolby Audio Driver. Restart the computer or reinstall the driver". Clicking on Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio the app opens. Do I really need both?
Both are listed on Programs and Features.
