This variety of options is confusing, and the fact that it is hard to know which one will work for you means that only users who are very interested in their audio set-up will bother following it through to the bitter end. Others will need to interact with the drivers by accessing the Realtek program files and opening RtkNGUI64, while yet more people will need to access the Realtek Audio HD manager via the control panel.
Some users will be able to use a Windows Store app called Realtek Audio Console. Interacting with your Realtek driversĭepending on your computer, interacting with your drivers will be more or less easy. If you’re unlucky, your computer will also use this time to install other updates, delaying the process further. You, as a user, will have to do relatively little, but you do have to let it play out. Even in the best-case scenario, this is a little time-consuming - the old drivers must be uninstalled and the computer restarted, and the new ones must be installed, and the computer restarted again. If you’re lucky, the whole process will be relatively straightforward - download, open, and follow the install wizard.
Realtek HD Audio Drivers are famously unpredictable to download and install.
