hi, i have had this issue for years and i have asked about it before but it was a different perspective i guess you can say, i have come to the conclusion that the stereo mix option in control panal/sound/recording tab, is not installing when i update my realtek audio drivers, i have done all known salutions(that i have found) and nothing, i have uninstalled, updated, reinstalled, rolled back, system restore, all that and stereo mix will not install with it, i have "show disabled devices" and show disconnected devices" checked and its still not there, idk what to do or how i am to fix this, i hope someone can help me with this issue, thanks.
