Windows 10: Missing or corrupted audio drivers error code 52

Just came back from holiday to see that my audio drivers for my microphone and headphones stopped working resulting in error code 52 in device manager. I've tried multiple methods available to fix it, including disabling device drivers via trouble-shooter, sfc/scannow, windows update, and even switching to test mode, which worked as a temporary fix. However, every time I need to reset my PC I have to go through the entire process again and again to get my audio back. Because of me disabling device drivers I'm not able to play games like Battlefield. I'd like to note that sfc/scannow said that
