    What I do (which might NOT be the wisest choice of action) so I can be able to use the UWP app and a newer driver is:

    - install the driver offered by my vendor, MSI - 6.0.1.8425 in this case for the UWP app to work
    - install UWP app, make sure it works
    - update to a driver that works (.8458 works in my case)

    A few quirks I noticed:

    - installing .8458 and then the UWP app is not working, not compatible bla bla, you HAVE to first install a driver that allows the UWP app on top of it
    - updating drivers like this is for the bored, cause I never noticed any improvements
    - there seem to be 2 branches of the drivers, with different file/folder structures. There are clear differences between a driver that works with UWP and a "classic" one like the .8459 above

    PS:
    - no, Nahimic requires MSi AND a motherboard with the supported chip on it, can forget about it on other brand. I have a Z370 Gaming Plus from MSI that actually got advertised that it had Nahimic and even this doesn't :\

    Hey, I'm looking for help with some new drivers for my mobo (B150M-GAMING from Gigabyte), I can't get the equalizer and advanced options from realtek to work if I don't install a driver with MBAPO Integration. I'm looking for the newest drivers available for my mobo but I can't find anywhere. Any help should be appreciated!

    My Hardware ID if this helps:
    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0892&SUBSYS_1458A0B3

    Look for HDXMB3H.inf with your hardware ID.

    Thanks, the RTK ones worked nicely with the UWP app.
