    Install the generic Realtek drivers, but Windows is replacing them


    10 2004, build 19041.450.

    I'm trying to install the generic Realtek Audio Drivers from their website, but Windows is constantly replacing them with the OEM's (Intel Smart Audio with separate Speakers and Headphone listings and no audio effects).

    The only way I can use the generic drivers is to use the setup program of the generic drivers to remove the Dell Drivers and replace them with the generic drivers. However, on next restart, Windows replaces them with the Dell drivers. I'm not using the generic Windows drivers as they produce audio crackling after a while, and I majorly use headphones so I have to unplug and plug them back in to reset the audio.

    How do I stop this permanently without using Group Policy (as I'm on W10 Home)?

    :)

    The Ultimate Realtek HD Audio Driver Mod for Windows 10

    I had the realtek error when using the installer, so I did these step and It Worked

    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
    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.
