If you uninstall it, it will reinstall itself when you restart your computer. As such, it effectively makes your existing device 'disappear' from your computer entirely.

Though this most recent windows update has seemed to trigger a lot of people using various devices of different brands and models.)įrom what I've read it's due to an issue where it causes an incompatibility, then defaults itself instead of whatever device was being used then refuses to check for said device because it can't detect the other device. (I have not found rhyme or reason as to what specifically triggers it causing audio problems. It can overwrite any existing usb audio device plugged into your computer when the update that triggers it goes off. It can not be rolled back (atleast on my computer.) It triggers audio problems through driver updates via windows update or 3rd party updates. I have been troubleshooting this unsuccessfully for 4 hours, so far this is what I've learned: I have an hs60 headset, and after auto-updates from this morning it no longer works.
