Windows 10: Realtek Audio Driver not showing up in Device Manager or Services. Realtek Audio Console...

Recently I was checking my audio settings in Windows 11 and I notice the Realtek option wasn't anywhere to be found. I need the Realtek option for the audio ports on my PC. I re-installed the Realtek Audio Drivers from my motherboards driver site countless times and nothing worked or showed up. They seem to be installed in the system, but they don't show anywhere else. I tried to see if my Device Manager showed them, but no luck. I tried watching different videos on how to fix it, but all of them needed to go into either Device Manager or Services where the Realtek Audio Driver isn't showing.
