Ever since I updated my laptop to the Windows 10 Anniversary update, I have not been able to use my NooElec R820T SDR with Unitrunker. Once I open Unitrunker and hit play, nothing happens. I've tried uninstalling Unitrunker and reinstalling it and I've tried reinstalling the the driver with Zadig with no luck. Anyone else having this problem and a possible fix?

Just happened to me. The RTL devices I had are now showing up as audio devices in Device Manager.

First, disable Windows automatic driver updates. Then reinstall the drivers for them using Zadig.

Even better, go back to Windows 7.

I went into device manager and deleted the 2 wireles devices (for my 2 dongles), checking the box to delete the drivers also. Then went to the top of the tree and right clicked on my computer name and chose scan for hardware changes. The dongles were plugged in the whole time, from the anniversary update through scanning for hardware. No reboots made either. Working fine now with SDR#.

Thanks for everyone's help. Somehow the RTL device got changed in the settings.
