Then I used Driver Sweeper to run an Analyse on Realtek Sound and left only RtkAPO64.dll checked before hitting the Clean button. Re-enabled Audiodg.exe in TM, which took a few attempts. Used Task Manager to End Process of Audiodg.exe and a couple Realtek related processes using this dll, and even ended up temporarily disabling Windows Audio in Services and it STILL wouldn't let me overwrite RtkAPO64.dll. I also noticed the file size of the stock RtkAPO64.dll is identical to that of the unlocked file, so I assume rather than being a different file it's just had the Dolby and DTS parts decrypted or something. I'm not sure if Ending Process of Audiodg.exe in Task Manager is safe or will work, but that may be my only recourse. I cannot overwrite or delete before replacing the RtkAPO64.dll file because Windows says it's being used by Audiodg.exe, and Windows Search only finds RtkAPO64.dll at that one location in C:\Windows\System32. I thought I already had R2.71 installed, but I'm wiping it and re-installing just to make sure.

I have yet to install them, but I assume that is the key to doing this right. This I found just by clicking Analyse under Realtek Sound in Driver Sweeper, which showed the proper file and it's location. They are not in the Realtek\Driver folder, they are at C:\Windows\System32 with system drivers. I was looking for them in the wrong place.

Windows Vista / 7 / 8 - 32 bit and 64 bit - R2.71 A1 (Alternative method): The Dolby Digital Live / DTS Interactive output setting you have set will still be in effect, even after a reboot. You can still replace the DLL and go to Control Panel > Sound, set the output format to Dolby Digital Live / DTS Interactive, and then switch back to the original DLL, Unfortunately, usually Windows PUMA (Protected User Mode Audio) will check the digital signature of the user-mode DLL and will refuse to play ("Failed to play test tone"),Įven so, PUMA will only re-verify the DLL signature after a system restart.īecause of that, and because Dolby Digital Live / DTS Interactive settings are used regardless of the DLL being loaded, Patch the kernel to permanently enable unsigned drivers.Īlternatively, here is another modification that does not require breaking the driver signature, and instead modifies one of the user-mode DLLs, Test-sign the driver and enable Test-mode.ģ.
