Inspiron One 2020, MaxxAudio 3 problem after Windows 10
So my 2012 Inspiron One 2020 has had a problem with the Dell Audio (Maxx Audio 3 Problem) after upgrading to Windows 10. Now this problem has been there since the beginning, as I updated to Windows 10 when first released, but I have noticed it only a few days back where I dual booted Windows 8. When I installed all the drivers, I learned that the Maxx Audio Menu is actually a thing and it appears in the Windows 8 version of the driver but not the Windows 10. Both operating systems are running 64-bit with the latest available driver from the Dell Driver section using my Service Tag to correctly identify my PC. Is there any solution to fix this problem? And if there is, how must I proceed? Here is the Preview of what I see when I try opening the settings as a Windows 10 user:
Thank you for your time!

In Windows-10 uninstall all audio drivers and delete the audio device from Device Manager.
Reboot.
Let the audio device PnP and a proper/working driver should load from Windows-Update.

Yes, I install every driver at once and then proceed to restart the PC after they all are installed. By every driver i mean, all the available and compatible drivers to Windows 10 64-Bit

Not sure I follow you.
As Windows-10 PnP's the audio-device, it should only toss-you ONE set of drivers.

By saying "installing every driver at once", I mean to say all the types of compatible drivers with my PC. Example, Audio, Wireless, Video Card and etc.

Windows-10 64bit (v1803) works on the Dell Inspiron 2330 All-in-One (IIRC, just one-year newer).
In Device Manager: Realtek High Definition Audio
In Control Panel there is an icon call "Dell Audio". Clicking it opens the "Dell Audio" app with a working MAXX-Audio-3 section.

Right.
If ePSA actually detects and tests the audio hardware ... IF it does ... that would be the best way to know.
If not, to find out ... you might have to re-install (from scratch) the version of Windows that came on the machine. If inconvenient, I suppose you could do it to a spare HDD/SSD.
