Realtek HDA/UAD/Component Drivers

Thank you for the explanation, but I didn't ask a question. I know exactly how these items work. Besides, it doesn't matter what you call them. Inf, cat, sys, it's a driver. I was responding to SM-003, who said that there are multiple versions of a given version. There aren't. The signature only changes if something changes.

one of my earlier posts have been recently edited to mention the 6.0.9921.1 all oem driver (and a 2nd Realtek Audio Universal Service 1.0.931.0 & Realtek HSA 11.0.6000.383 SWC driver package) released by Microsoft
