Use Add/Remove programs to uninstall the Realtek driver (if it exists).Note: I am on a Dell G7 and these steps may be slightly different for your machine. The problem lies with that one, so disabling ALL automated installation isn't really what I wanted. Is there a way to do one of those two things?Įdit: I actually like the automated installation of most drivers on the system. Another way to help me would be to figure out how to avoid Windows reinstalling that application every time without asking me. Is there a way to work around the Audio Manager screwing up my sound management. I tried uninstalling the the Audio Manager, and that works for a short time, but apparently Windows reinstalls it every time.
I have to use the Audio Manager in an annoying way. I can now no longer switch devices in the Playback devices, both front and back connectors are the same 'device'. When switching to Windows 10, the updater/setup automatically installed a 'Realktek HD Audio Manager' (which is the manufacturer), however that driver removed the ability to do that. I used to use the 'Playback Devices' menu to switch the default playback device depending on what I needed. In Windows 7 I used to have my Sound set up that I had my Headset plugged in at my front audio ports, and my speakers plugged in in the rear.
