Windows 10: My laptop keeps replacing my audio drivers

I own an asus laptop with realtek R audio. I switch out the drivers and as a result, I have to restart my laptop. I have the new drivers installed for a minute or 2, but then windows not only gets rid of, but replaces the drivers completely with the original ones. I don't know what to do, any fixes?
