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. The "devices" under Audio inputs and outputs are not relevant in this context. (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. But the installer insisted it was still installed. 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.
