Windows 10: Realtek & HD Audio drivers not found/not working

Hi.

Yesterday, I tried letting the program Driver Booster by iObit update my drivers while I was out walking my dog because everyone I know had recommended it. When I came back and restarted my laptop, I suddenly had no audio.

I subsequently spent 9 hours going through every single fix I could find here or anywhere else on the web.

I tried everything from reinstalling & updating the driver, delete it completely and set up a generic audio driver. Tried to reset the audio service, even resetting the registry.




On top of all of that, I also seem to be missing High Definition Audio Driver. And I can't seem to "get them back".

The only reason I currently even have the Realtek driver visible in my Device Manager is because I used Device Manager's "Add Legacy driver" setting to at least have it be visible on my screen, since doing so gives me a Code 10. I did this because downloading and installing the driver, from either Realtek's own website or Lenovo's page for my type of laptop would download, install and say that the installation was completed successfully, but nothing happens even after a restart.





After everything I tried, I also did a complete windows reset.

... Nothing!


My laptop is an Ideapad L340-15IRH Gaming

Bios version is: BGCN33WW

Processor IntelR CoreTM i5-9300H CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz

Installed RAM 8,00 GB 7,88 GB usable

System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor


I have no more ideas for what to do next. I've tried everything I know and everything I could find.

Any other ideas?

:)
