Thanks a lot for your reply, good thing I asked about the folders . I have version 17763.379. Btw, I've been told that my audio device is a generic FF00 without any integrations. I assume this repacked driver is also compatible with it?

so far the repacked 8614 UAD should work. but remember when switching from using generic FF00 Realtek HDA drivers to UAD drivers (or vice versa like from UAD to FFxx HDA) you need to uninstall the current drivers first, restart the computer and then install the UAD drivers (or vice versa). never install UAD drivers on top of FF00 HDA drivers (or vice versa) as that will leave things in a very messy situation (and will be a little harder to clean up after that)

edit: here's a pic in Device Manager on how the Realtek UAD driver is fully completely installed - there is a Software Components section in Device Manager that lists the needed Realtek software components.

Note to F_TWICE: Uninstall/remove any of the realtek audio drivers first, reboot and try my repacked 8614 UAD driver because HWID "HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0900&SUBSYS_10438699" is not listed nor supported in any official UAD driver; using any of the Realtek UAD drivers from the Microsoft Update Catalog site like 8625 are not guaranteed to work with your ASUS X99 motherboard.

only new ASUS boards with Realtek audio chips + 7th gen/8th gen Intel CPUs or AMD Ryzen CPUs (B360, B450, Z370, Z390 etc.) can safely use newer UAD drivers

thx, i'll try and keep you in touch

Well erpster96... Thank you !!
your repacked version work from the start to the end
cherry on the cake, all my front panel output problems (distortion, no stereo, tricky setting needed,...) are gone (windows 10 1809)
All was needed after it's to reinstall the Realtek Audio Console from the store
if you make an updated last drivers version, just let me know, i will test it for you

note : i use DDU from safe mode to clean the old 8485 repacked drivers

I noticed that these MUC drivers don't contain the app nor the Realtek components, and thus you won't be able to download the Realtek Console App from the Microsoft Store after installing these drivers.

Can I just uninstall my current Realtek UAD drivers without uninstalling the Realtek Console app and then install these UAD drivers from the Microsoft Update Catalog? Will the app still work afterwards even though there are no Realtek components then?
