m17 R3, Windows 11, Realtek audio drivers not installing
I upgraded my computer to Windows 11 and the Realtek HD Audio drivers don't appear anywhere. I've tried installing them multiple times to no success, and I need the headphone jack as my headphones are wired. I consider myself pretty tech-savvy and I've tried everything.

I highly recommend not using Windows 11 as its not very stable right now with issues all over the community.
If you can I'd revert back to 10 if possible and see if you can reinstall the drivers.

In addition to the advice by @Alienware Area-51 ALX 2006 , this web page has some suggestions and may help. And yes there are a number of users that have had trouble with the Realtek devices.

But if you wanna try these out as an administrator in command prompt to see if that fixes the issue when installing the drivers.
Do these as an admin in CMD:
sfc /scannow
chkdsk /r
chkdsk /f
