Windows 10: I need a new audio driver that works with Windows 10 that is not Realtek.

My computer just underwent the recent Windows update and with it the updated Realtek audio driver. I don't know if I had been using a Realtek driver before that point, I never had a reason to pay attention to it. My audio input through any mic I connect since the update is horrible and I need a new driver that is not Realtek, as I have updated it again, un and reinstalled it and followed all the steps listed in other similar questions such as:

I suggest you to run the Audio troubleshooter and check if it helps.

If the issue persists, then try to uninstall and re-install the audio driver.

1. Press Windows Logo Key+X. Click on Device Manager.
2. In the list of hardware categories, look for the device that you want to update, and then right-click on it to Uninstall.
3. Follow onscreen instructions to uninstall it.
4. To re-install, either you can restart the system or install the driver from the manufacturer’s website (recommended as they will have updated drivers).

This has not worked for me; I need an option that is either a guaranteed fix which I don't think is available, or a new compatible driver.
