14 DAY TRIAL // Realtek has just rolled out a new High-Definition Audio driver, namely version 6.0.1.7936, which is compatible with Microsoft’s Windows 10 Threshold (TH) anniversary edition and might implement small sound quality improvements.
Moreover, besides the platforms mentioned above, this update also includes support for both 32- and 64-bit variants of Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 operating systems, and can be applied to either desktop or notebook configurations.
As for recommendations, take into account that the package should be installed only on the highlighted OSes. Doing otherwise might lead to various malfunctions that would require you to remove the 7936 build and re-apply the previous driver; even if it might seem to work at first.
Therefore, to upgrade to this release correctly, save and unzip the downloadable archive on an accessible location (such as your desktop), locate and run the available “setup.exe” file, and follow all instructions displayed on the screen for a complete and successful upgrade.
In addition to that, make sure to give the wizard permission to perform a restart so that changes can take effect properly; if not requested automatically, carry out this step manually.
With this in mind, download Realtek HD Audio Driver 6.0.1.7936, install it and check out our website as often as possible to be aware when a newer version is available for your device.
Update 9/19: A few moments ago, the same audio build was also spotted on Microsoft's Windows Update Catalog and is only compatible with Windows 10 OSes (including Anniversary Update editions). Therefore, use the same download link above to get and install these files.
