better beat MS to the punch and install the 8895 driver ASAP from Dell.1. 1 driver version resolves a security vulnerability in Realtek audio drivers as described in Dell's Security Advisory DSA-2020-131 published on May 29.Īlthough sometimes Microsoft releases buggy updates for several Win10 versions on some occasions, so don't upgrade to the May 2020 (v2004) version of Win10 yet until Microsoft themselves fix some of the problems that are being mentioned here.Įdit - if you will not install the newer 8895 Realtek HDA driver, the Win10 OS eventually will automatically (and silently) download & install it, without your consent. the risk is either "minimal" or negligible when installing the newer version. bad choice to not install the new Realtek audio driver because the updated driver may resolve problems with recent Win10 versions.

I will not install this updated driver, it is too risky. restart the laptop, install the 8895 Realtek HDA driver and restart again.Īfter restarting, check in Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) to see if the Realtek Audio device from the Sound, video and game controllers section is working and that there are no yellow exclamation ! marks on any devices listed.Īfter I will backup all my data I will contact with Dell because laptop is still on warranty. You will however, need to uninstall the existing Realtek audio driver as well as the Waves Maxxaudio software from the Programs and Features control panel (appwiz.cpl). Strokean updated Realtek HD Audio driver v.1 A16 is available from Dell almost a few weeks ago for the Vostro 5568 model, which should work with the current Win10 v1909 version as well as the upcoming v2004 release. I tried remove Realtek Sound Card and add it again. After troubleshooting it says that: "At least one audio service is not running". In right corner in tray there is red sign on speaker icon. I cannot uninstall this update, I cannot reset to factory settings, so I need to fix audio. After latest Windows Update Realtek stopped working.
