  1. Driver updates via WU Windows 10, more and more Extension Infs. Does anyone still know...


    Hello everybody,

    I noticed that e.g. for Intel UHD drivers which are updated via Windows Update, more and more extension drivers are added. Other hardware such as Realtek Audio have also some extension drivers, but here they are at least replaced instead of accumulated.

    Apart from the fact that driver updates that are so frequent cause me some discomfort in the long run problems have to arise is this accumulation of Extension Infs very ugly.

    Generally, these extension drivers are somewhat unclear.
    For example, I have the experience that they are sometimes not updated outside of windows update i.e. automatically or via the device manager until the "main driver" is removed and reinstalled.
    If, on the other hand, I only update the "main driver", the old Extension Infs are simply adopted ... a nice mess.
    Especially if you should have deactivated driver updates via WU - via WU they will be updated properly or accumulated... like in the case of Intel.


    Here is a list of the updates of the last 5 months - 3 extensions have now become 6!

    Can please someone explain the thing with this Extension Infs to me?
    And why are these piling up with the Intel UHD drivers?

    Thanks and greetings,

    Martin

    :)

    The Ultimate Realtek HD Audio Driver Mod for Windows 10

    Everyone that post ids, need just do these steps and you will be good. I kinda tired of keep on uploading the inf. file

    1.Go Open up device manager
    2. Go under sound,video, and game controllers
    3. Find Realtek High Definition Audio
    4. Right click and hit update driver
    5. Browse my computer for driver software
    6. Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer
    7. Click Have Disk and hit browse
    8. Click on the Realtek HD Audio mod folder and look for win64
    9. Click on the HDXRT4 and click ok,
    10. Click Next and Yes
    additional if you want dts audio and others, install it now before next step.
    After it is done, restart the PC

    You should be good then and also make sure before doing these steps that you have driver enforcement disabled.

  3. Windows 10 fails to update


    When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

    Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

    I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.
