Windows 10: Sound Enhancement Tab/High Def Driver both missing

I am trying to restore the "enhancement" tab to my sound properties. It has been suggested on the web that I use the Windows High Definition Audio driver vs. the Realtek driver. The Windows driver is not available as an option when I try to install it via device manager even when I untick the "show compatible hardware" box.Edition Windows 10 Home x64Version 22H2Installed on ‎4/‎9/‎2021Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045OS build 19045.3803Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19053.1000.0HP Spectre x360 Convertible 13-ae0xx

Sound Properties under Realtek Drivers Missing Enhancement Tab

now leis, I need the hardware device ID number of the Realtek High Definition Audio or Realtek Audio device in Device Manager. Go to this site on how to find the hardware ID for a particular device in Device Manager:
How to Find Hardware ID: 9 Steps (with Pictures) - wikiHow

example - on my friend's PC using an ASUS M5A78L-M LE/USB3 motherboard using a Realtek ALC887 audio device, the Hardware IDs listed for it in Device Manager are the following:

HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0887&SUBSYS_10438576&REV_1003
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0887&SUBSYS_10438576

I ask this because I may try to find particular HDA or UAD drivers that may be compatible with a certain Hardware ID on your Lenovo ideacentre computer, leis. [/quote] L: My Computers[/i] You need to have JavaScript enabled so that you can use this ...

Sound Properties under Realtek Drivers Missing Enhancement Tab

I have Windows 10 64 bit Ver. 1809 (OS Build 17763.737)
and during the drivers update for Realtek, the Enhancement Tab is missing in the sound properties. Can this be due to motherboard issue or that is, drivers not compatible? I would rather have the older drivers like in windows 7 installed as closely to possible as windows 7 because it was better by far and i don't know why or what the analysis and all the details therein that are involved, i just know that for the pro media Klipsch speakers i have, the sound Isn't the same.
At any rate, about the enhancement tab if there's any ideas or suggestions, thanks a lot.

 

Sound Properties under Realtek Drivers Missing Enhancement Tab

in addition to my previous post, here's what the Enhancements tab looks like on the Speaker properties dialog box when using traditional/legacy Realtek HDA drivers and not Realtek UAD drivers:





(this is only an example as there's also an srs premium sound tab, which is an extra enhancement for certain computers with realtek audio + srs; as I said previously this dialog box may be going away in a future release of Win10 as MS wants to move everything onto the Windows Settings app)

note to leis - I have found a slightly newer Realtek UAD driver from Lenovo that you can try out; it's v6.0.8734.1 & even though it may not be listed for your ideacentre 510-15icb model (it was listed for ideacentre 510-15ick), the 8734 uad driver should work as it has the same INF files as the 8699.1 version.
