Hi.

I have the Realtek UAD driver installed on my PC, and mistakenly installed the HDA update offered on Optional drivers on Windows Update.

The UAD drivers is still installed because it is newer than the HDA drivers.

Then I opened Realtek Audio Console.

It says:
Realtek Audio Console doesn't support for this machine.

When I killed the HDA service, I can plug in my headphones but it does not detect it.

Can you go to Device manager and roll back the driver or uninstall the wrong one and reinstall the correct one from the Realtek website

Realtek Audio Console REQUIRES a Realtek HD (UAD) Driver!! - Windows 10 Help Forums

Earlier this year, rumors started floating around about a Microsoft Store App called the Realtek Audio Console. By the end of August, I myself was able to grab it from the I wrote a post about this stuff for Win10.Guru called Putting Realtek Audio Console
www.tenforums.com www.tenforums.com

The Audio driver says Realtek(R) Audio not Realtek High Definition Driver.
