Windows 10: microsoft uaa bus driver for high definition audio is missing from device manager

I'm running Windows 10 pro x64 on a PC with an ryzen 3 1300x & an Gigabyte a320ma-m.2 mobo. After getting everything setup and buily, I noticed that the Realtek HD audio drivers were actually missing. I installed these but afterwards, the associated icons did not appear anywhere on the taskbar and my aux ports were not functional at all. I couldn't open RtkNGUI64.exe manually either as the only realtek file was a non functional updater file. So I tried to follow the suggested steps on fixing this issue, but when I opened the device manager, I couldn't find Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio under system devices or anywhere else. And i can find a way to get the driver back, and also installing the realtek driver for this mobo never installs anything and doesnt work, everything else on the pc is completely functional, and i can even use a usb uo xbox controller to have an aux port, as well as use hdmihhrough hmy graphics card for sound, but realtek myis and non-existent port and aux pprts dont work

Thank you

:)

 

microsoft uaa bus driver for high definition audio is missing from device manager

I'm running Windows 10 on a PC with an Intel i5-8400 & an ASUS Z370 mobo. The sound quality was rather flat, so I proceeded to tweak it with the equalizer setting, whereupon I noticed that the Realtek HD audio drivers were actually missing. I installed
these but afterwards, the associated icons did not appear anywhere on the taskbar. I couldn't open RtkNGUI64.exe manually either. So I tried to follow the suggested steps on fixing this issue, but when I opened the device manager, I couldn't find Microsoft
UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio under system devices or anywhere else.

It doesn't seem to be available at Asus, so where do I download this?

Thanks in advance.

 

High Definition Audio Device drivers missing

Hi Davide

The High Definition Audio drivers are built into Windows already

Right click that device in Device Manager, choose 'Update Driver

Then choose 'Browse my computer for Driver Software' - 'Let me pick from a list of available drivers'

If you do not see the default High Definition Audio device, untick 'Show Compatible Hardware'

On the left, select Microsoft, then on the right scroll down to find 'High Definition Audio Device Version 10.0. . . . .

 

Realtek Audio Drivers messed up - Microsoft UAA?

I would try this first: http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/SO...AA-Bus-Driver-for-High-Definition-Audio.shtml but uninstall your audio driver first, reboot, then install this M$ UAA driver. That is very strange that the realtek drivers didn't install this if its a HD audio chipset, I 've done it so many times at work it is basically routine. If that doesn't help there could be a driver conflict from the previous audio driver still trying to find its chipset which in turn is causing problems with the realtek not working.
