Windows 10: your new update broke my audio again. How hard is it to stop making the same mistake every...

once again loud static noises this time from both realtek and the generic high definition audio device. Right when I was in the middle of something. There is no solution other that hope it starts working again later.


The usual hotfix of switch to generic does not work, generic is also broken. extremely frustrating and I do not have the emotional energy to

deal with it

Something similair happens every single month when there is a an update. This is entirely on microsoft. How hard is it to stop breaking realtek every single time? I would understand if this was a on time thing, but this happens literally every single update, christ.

After I installed the updates KB3176936, KB3176934, and KB3176495, the audio stopped working

I'm facing a problem after I installed the updates KB3176936, KB3176934, and KB3176495, the audio stopped working.

I contact Dell's support and together we tried to:

• Update the driver
• Reinstall the driver
• Uninstall the driver to use windows suggested drivers.
• Remove the drivers to use the microsoft drivers.
• Run sfc
• Run Dell Assist Tools
• Run Driver updates tools
• Uninstalled the Windows updates.

None fixed the problem.

During the RCA I restored my computer 3 times and the issue is not on the sound card, since when I restore the system it works.

I'd like to know what would be the next steps.

Is Microsft release a patch for the update that is breaking the audio?
