[SOLVED] Realtek HD Audio Manager

[LionKing12]

I reinstalled my Windows 10 because I just installed a SSD I'm using Asus H97M - E motherboard and each time I installed sound drivers from their website before it came with a HD audio manager with a lot settings, it appeared in notification bar with black icon but I just reinstalled it twice and both times I am unable to find the Realtek audio manager, it appeared in control panel in previous windows but not anymore, what can I do to get it back? my windows has high defitniton audio device drivers currently I uninstalled Realtek drivers what am I missing this time?

Have you by any chance installed an Nvidia or Radeon graphics card which has an integrated audio chip?

I have a RX 470 MSI Gaming. Its old drivers were installed automatically before I installed audio drivers from asus website

Audio drivers for the RX 470 are included with the RX 470 graphics driver package and are installed automatically by default --- even if you installed Realtek audio drivers after that, it may not fix the problem.
You need to uninstall RX 470 driver package, then re-install it without its audio drivers (custom install).

Now install Realtek driver package from Asus and this time it should be okay (this step may not even be necessary).

I also thought this caused the problem, in past AMD audio drivers didn't show up in device managers because I used a DVI cable and they started appearing once I started using HDMI port, I will try this and see how it goes.
