In my current audio driver, I don't have a sound effect option where I can control the equalizer. I am looking for this kind of option:



Instead, I am having this kind of option only:

    The lack of equalizer in the realtek audio console generally means that there is a second audio app --- often for computers with "premium" audio features like DTS.

    Is there any way I can get those options?

    There is no way to get those missing options back because Acer does not want you to have 2 equalizers running at the same time ruining your sound.

    So there is some sort of equalizer in your computer --- it may not be a 10 band graphic equalizer, it may be a "premium" 3 band with presets. So just look for any audio related app in your computer --- dolby, dts, nitrosense...

    I don't have any kind of premium equalizer install. I played games all of the time, now I have found that I can change some options in equalizer which will help me to get footsteps clearly. So, I don't install any other software. I am attaching the sound controllers driver details, if it helps you:

    It's APPS. Your laptop comes with Dolby so audio enhancements are done by Dolby.

    I already told you that I don't have install any kind of software or app similar to this. I get it at the first time when you said it.  I am attaching all of the installed app list here.

    Then you have to figure out whether you have installed Dolby in the first place. And if you installed Dolby already, how to access the Dolby features.

    Have you run Microsoft Store to see if you can pull the app.

    Acer doesn't want you to run 2 equalizers and 2 loudness equalization (it may be called Dolby night mode) at the same time so Acer deleted those features in the Realtek Audio Console.

    i had been installed Dolby before. But I install clean windows after that.

    Then figure out how to install Dolby, which is probably within the driver in the big download file. It is the Dolby app that will give you some sort of equalizer and some sort of night mode.
