(For some older builds of Windows 10, you might need to go to the deprecated/hidden Control Panel instead, since Installed apps lists only those Windows Store apps, IIRC. Sometimes the driver installer will install some kind of "uninstaller" for you. ![]() You may also want to take a look at Apps-> Installed apps in Settings before any of the above. For the "generic" ones there will be only a USB Composite Device which relys on Windows builtin "generic" driver that you do NOT need to / CANNOT uninstall.) (I don't have this kind of "special" USB sound card to tell. To remove the sound cards / controllers, where you should be provided an option (checkbox) to uninstall the corresponding driver, you should go to Sound, video and game controllers.Īlso give Universal Serial Bus controllers a look, but most likely you would NOT find anything that you need to remove there. They are some just "virtual" ones created by Windows from the information provided by your sound cards / controllers. Select USB Root Hub (USB 3.0), then select Next. If a window titled 'Update driver warning' appears, select Yes. ![]() Select Update driver -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers in this computer -> Select High Definition Audio Device and select Next. Select Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer. In the next window, go to the Driver tab. Select the Driver tab, then select Update Driver. Right-click (or tap and hold) USB Root Hub (USB 3.0) and select Properties. The "devices" under Audio inputs and outputs are not relevant in this context. Access the Device Manager as in the first step above. (see attached image.) There is no sign of this device/driver in Universal Serial Bus controllers but I did find a Steinberg USB controller utility in Apps and Features and that did allow me to uninstall it far enough to install a new one. Starting with Windows 10, release 1703, a USB Audio 2.0 driver is shipped with Windows. These drivers are documented here: USB Audio 2.0 Drivers - Windows drivers. When connected to Windows 10, built-in drivers are used to recognize USB audio device. But the installer insisted it was still installed. The Mod uses Linux’s UAC2 usb audio gadget module. I "uninstalled" it from there it disappeared from "Audio Inputs and Outputs". What do I need to do to get rid of these, what keeps putting them back when I get rid of them, and why are there two of them?ĮDIT - PS - Tom Yan, in his answer, pointed out that I could also find the same driver under "Sound, Video and Game Controllers". If I delete them and try to install a new one on the spot before rebooting, the installer claims they're already installed, as you can see here. If I delete them ("remove device"), as soon as I reboot they reappear. For some reason a PAIR of these show up in Device Manager. ![]() I'm trying to uninstall the driver for a USB audio interface (the Steinberg in the image below), because I want to install a fresh version, since the current one is acting flaky.
