I did everything like u said. Fresh W10, first installed w/o dword or disabling DSE and it worked, after reboot it was gone (like u said) then I disabled opened test mode, installed again and rebooted, didnt work. tried now DSE disabled mode from troubleshooting, still doesnt work :/

would u mind helping me please?

how can I make it work.

My motherboard is MSI B350M Mortar

you may face the same issue like I did ...for me to keep DSE deactivated I had to disable "Secure Boot" in my motherboard BIOS . A good indication is that it worked but after restart it may be that BootSecure reactivated DSE however your deactivation is still in place but DSE is now forced.
My example now everything works but Secure Boot is disabled .
I enable Secure boot login to windows ..and magically it doesn't work any more , I didn't touch my DSE command it is still in place form before .


I go back to bios disable SB , login again ..tdaaa ..now everything works perfectly.

The best indication that it is working is when you do the test run using the Troubleshooter to disable DSE but thats temporarily however now the only thing to worry about is to get DSE disabled , after the fall update I think Secure boot from motherboard Bios and DSE are somehow connected ..dont ask me how and why I suspect 2 things that may force this but I dont know for sure .

After the fall update DSE is much harder to keep deactivated you have to dig deep in googling how to do it , I dont have TEST mode enabled only DSE deactivated and Secure Boot deactivated

just to clarify how I came across this shitty DSE force , I couldn't get my own modified drivers to work after full clean installation of W10 after fall update I made reset and let everything clean install from scratch .
I was confused wth ??? How can this be ? ..So first thing I suspected was DSE . OK , I did the usual DSE deactivation command through command prompt admin ...when I got a warning msg ..DSE cannot be deactivated as a part of Secure boot ..blabla ... ???? damn ...trouble

Then I run the command through power-shell admin and it appeared it worked ..but it didn't.
To get on the bottom of this I ran Troubleshooter and logged in using DSE disabled option and as soon as I logged in, the driver that didn't work before now was working normally , tested everything ...all good, DTS I ,DDL all ok , so I was prepared that it wont work after restart and I as right .

I entered my mbo BIOS went in the Security Tab found option there saying "Secure Boot" which was enabled and I disable that ..immediately some shitty warning appeared that this is blablabla dangerous , I disregarded the warning saved settings ,rebooted first screen appeared that I never saw before saying ..Secure Boot is disabled to continue enter code xxxxx + enter ..so I did ..the rest went normally and when I entered Windows driver was working without problems
Tested few of them that didn't want to work and every one of them after disabling that damn SB did work again.

It is getting more complicated :(

http://sharemods.com/ct89upig9f92/realtek_hda_8059_DTSi_DDLrdy.rar.html

be sure Dword is 32 bit enabled (1) and in place

same result, this time I rebooted with DSE disabled in every step. Advanced reboot option, chose 7... everytime :/

use stock software and use it for now. I need my pc for studies :/

I have a xonar dt2 but My new pc doesnt have a PCI slot and I cant use it :(

Well thank you for your help bro, Im gonna hit the bed right now.

that is unfortunate both of you running msi boards on 892 ..Im so convinced it has to work as I managed to get it working on msi GT72 Dominator pro with the same 892 Realtek and with less fuss then on my hp OMEN :confused:

Just tried Realtek_HDA_6.0.1.8273_DTS_DDL_experimental (21/10/17).
No dice, DTS option not visible, DDL visible, but once selected throws up error popup stating format not supported by device. Previous experimental version dated 19/10/2017 had DDL working, but since i had to format my hdd, don't have that available. Tried realtek_hda_8261_DTS_DDL_experimental just now, still no luck.
Will try older versions next, kind of odd that something that once worked has stopped doing so, starting to get real sick and tired of this asus bullshit.

I personally have it up & running on this machines :
hp OMEN desktop X 900-000nx Rltk ALC1150 DTS-i / DDL ( personal gaming pc )
self build PC ASUS Z170-A Rltk ALC 892 (personal media pc ) DDL only (decided to use old official drivers instead with DTS-i )
a friends msi GT72 2QE Dominator Pro with Rltk ALC892 DTS-i/ DDL
why you two cant get it working on your end is a mystery to me :shadedshu::wtf:

I'm a bit surprised as well, had it owrking on my Asus m5a97 PRO with no issues, for the new B350-F only a single driver version has worked so far. Following the same procedure I get different results which is just weird, but oh well, at least there is hope.

that is the 19/10 http://sharemods.com/dmwlfqpe2h66/Realtek_HDA_6.0.1.8272_DTS_DDL_experimental.zip.html

I took it off as it was in fact BETA driver and 8273 is WHQL so I have it running on my end and uploaded it instead of 8272 there is another beta 8275 but this one acted strange on my end so I didn't upload it .

anomaly was DDL was working normally with beta 8275 ...but DTS -i popped up error msg as you guys explained ..so I just drop it .

The beta drivers worked, have DDL enabled once again. When I get more time I'll try to figure out why only the betas have worked so far.

There is a slight change in the inf structure its a bit diferent then the whql 73 also there is an extra inf added that is missing in the 73 driver , for me it dosent really matter as both are working for me , heck even my screen shots are with 72 .
