Realtek Audio Manager

Hi,

I just purchased a Surface Pro 4 running Windows 10 Pro and when I go into the Control Panel I don't see the Realtek Audio Manager. I have my Desktop Running Realtek Audio Manager running Windows 10 Pro also with no problems!?

Do I need another driver or another solution?

Can anyone help me solve as I would like to use the equalizer from Realtek Audio Manager?

Please help!

Thanks so much in advance!

Greg

 

Realtek audio manager not existing.

I have tried everything even updating the Realtek audio driver but the audio manager is no-where to be found not even in the control panel.

 

realtek audio manager for ALC1220-VB codec (gigabyte)

Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus Z390 Ultra , BIOS v F8

Audio (on-board): Realtek ALC1120-VB codec

Steps already taken:

updated all drivers and chipsets to most current

confirmed in apps list, control panel, Startup panel, and Search that there is no Realtek Audio Manager installed

disabled all audio controllers that are not Realtek

uninstalled all Realtek audio drivers (including checking the box to delete associated driver) in Device Manager

rebooted and reinstalled a number of versions of the latest drivers from both the manufacturer website, Aorus, and Microsoft Catalogue, and even the R282 version from 2017 from Realtek

No matter what I do, the Audio Manager does not install and I therefore have no way to re-task the line-in jacks for 5.1 channel sound.

My questions are:

1. where can I get a complete installer that will properly install both driver and Audio Manager

2. what is the name/version of the drivers I need

3. is the process described above adequate and if not, please describe in detail the necessary process
