Unpacking the Microsoft Update Catalog CAB File

To start, you need to point Windows to the location where you unpacked the Microsoft Update Catalog CAB file. Right-click on 'Realtek(R) Audio', select 'Update driver', then select 'Browse my computer for driver software'.

Verifying Software Components

Expand the 'Sound, video and game controllers' category and make sure the 3 items are there. Note that Realtek Audio Console belongs to UWP (Universal Windows Platform) application and is available on Microsoft Store.

Unpacking the CAB File

Next, unpack the CAB file using an archive program such as 7-Zip. Rename the CAB file to something more memorable like 'Realtek Audio 6'. This will make it easier to locate in your computer.

Searching for Realtek Audio Device Updates

Click on the 'Last Updated' column title to get the newest release at the top of the list. Search results for 'Realtek Audio Device Windows 10' will appear.

Resolving Low Microphone Sound Issues

If you are experiencing low microphone sound with your Realtek audio driver, follow these steps:

1. Install Realtek Audio Console software on your computer.

2. Run 'setup.cmd' from pal1000's Realtek-UAD-generic package as an administrator.

3. Remove the IDT audio driver in Start>Control Panel>Uninstall a program.

Additional Tips

Before you install anything, make sure to go into Device Manager and uninstall (with delete) your existing audio driver. You may need to do this more than once until Windows drops back to the Microsoft audio driver.

By following these steps, you should be able to configure your Realtek Audio Console settings on Windows 10 and resolve any issues with low microphone sound.
