Hello,
I'm posting a message on this forum because I've recently had a problem with the Realtek high definition audio driver software.
After installing a software (Android emulator for PC), I noticed that my computer slowed down a lot and that the sound was much louder than before. Furthermore, I noticed while checking the sound that the name had changed and now "Realtek high definition audio driver" appears above the volume slider.
I don’t remember installing this software and I believe it was added without my permission when I installed the Android emulator. Additionally, another software appeared on my desktop: AudioWizard. Again, I never installed this software.
I tried to remove these programs with CCleaner and other tools, and I even performed system clean-ups, but even a system restore did not allow me to remove them.
Indeed, every time I think I’ve gotten rid of them, they reinstall themselves as soon as I restart my computer! I’ve searched the internet extensively, but I haven’t found a solution.
Is there anyone who can help me permanently remove these programs and get my sound back to what it was before?
I would like to specify that I have an Asus N56V running Windows 10.
Thanks in advance.

Realtek high definition audio driver is the driver for your sound card. So if you delete it, you will encounter problems. In CCleaner, you can see how long your software has been installed. You'll see that if your Windows installation was done properly, Realtek will be one of the first on the list. It is by no means a malware. If it’s not working anymore, try updating it (uninstall/reinstall).
But since the problem arose after installing your virtual machine on Android, I would say that it's probably that causing all the trouble.
Run ADWcleaner, and you will then know what the real malware is on your PC.
