    - 6.0.9228.2
    - 6.0.9243.5
    - 6.0.9249.2
    - 6.0.9311.2
    - 6.0.9376.3
    - 6.0.9455.2
    - 6.0.9561.5
    - 6.0.9561.8
    - 6.0.9700.2

    Only the last one is interesting.

    For historical / curiosity purposes, here is some data from my research:

    - While still being released, HDA and UAD shared the same RTKVHD64.sys and RTAIODAT.DAT core files.
    - RTKVHD64.sys enables/disables enhancements and choose the proper control panel (RtkNGUI64 or RAVCpl64) for the coinstaller DLL.

    - 8186 - (R2.82) - Last version to include Andrea APOs

    - 8541 - Last to support legacy APOs in RltkAPO (the Realtek APO chain loads 3rd party APOs, related code was removed from versions later than 11.0.6000.644)

    - 8694 - 100% intact INF (GUIDs, device IDs)

    - 8699 - Broken IDs, such as HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0892&SUBSYS_10438698 (ASUS Z170-A)

    - 8746 - Broken GUIDs, PKEY_INTEL_MIC_HT {19d85455-f3eb-49ff-8744-4c8b42f08526},0

    - 8777 -> 9175 BROKEN KS GUIDs (KSCATEGORY_RENDER="{65E8776E-8F56-11D0-A3B9-00A0C9223196}" / KSCATEGORY_CAPTURE="{65E8776D-8F56-11D0-A3B9-00A0C9223196}" and several others, it just gets worse with later versions)

    - 9013 - Breaks SRS

    - 9183 - GUIDs restored

    - 9239 - Last 100% working driver

    - 9244 - UAD, but RTKVHD64.sys seems to work on legacy OSes

    - 9273 - Broken 3rd party audio enhancements, such as Dolby Audio X2 (DAX2) - removal of strings INSTALLDESKTOPSHORTCUT and INSTALLTRAYICON and their related code from RTKVHD64.sys breaks DAX2 install

    - 9304 - Last to install/load tray Realtek CPL

    - 9307 - Removed support for ALC260/ALC660-VD/ALC663/ALC861-VD/ALC880

    - 9316 - Removed support for ALC861/ALC883
    - Restored support for ALC663

    - 9319 - Removed support for ALC231/ALC272/ALC276/ALC665/ALC670/ALC672/ALC676/ALC680/ALC882
    - Removed again ALC663

    - 9360 - Until then, last to support Windows 7 (no missing imports, pre-Win8 security cookie compatible).

    - 9700 - Last to support Windows 7 (as of Sep 9, 2024)
