Windows 10: Realtek Audio Manager Not in Startup

Hello all.

I may be remembering wrong but when you install Realtek's HD Audio drivers, isn't the audio manager supposed to be in the Startup menu? I no longer see it there, and I'd like to know if it's possible to get it back there (if it was ever supposed to be there in the first place).

I have a feeling I may have screwed up the audio drivers when I tried to update them (following these directions) because I didn't know what Realtek had done with the whole UAD thing and installed those without realizing that legacy HDA versions existed. I had to spend a few hours trying to figure out how to get the legacy drivers back on once I realized that the UAD drivers were for newer motherboards, but I managed to fix things in the end. Luckily, this post helped me out with that.

It is suggested by some for you to open your task manager, and see if Realtek HD Audio Manager is listed on boot on startup

Like so:



Have you tried this obvious fix?
