A common problem when Windows 10 was updated to the Aniversary update.Turn the driver Signature off and install goes fine. I've had to do this several times.
I use advanced boot / troubleshoot.

but I have quite a few unsigned drivers, audio and otherwise, on 64 bit windows and have never had a problem. I do tend to use open sourced programs without all these inbuilt 'spying' functions, and by and large, they don't have certified drivers.
Is it your 'optimising' audio suites? Or do you not disable useless security features from the word go?
The issue is with the Anniversary Update for Windows 10. It scrutinizes Signed drivers unless this feature is temporally turned off.I have a dual boot system that runs Windows 10 Pro 64 and a Windows 10 Pro 64 with AudiophileOptimizer. This driver install issue is seen with both versions.
AudiophileOptimizer will prevent updates and other security features unless one performs a Reset in the program.

I have NO issues with the update
I have just lost Ethernet after. Gone back to W8.1 x64 which provides superior 4k video and can be controlled.
Don't know why punters spend money on new HW and SW, then find retrograde 'downgrades'.
New W10 updates add incomprehensible services that may be spyware?
It works, why fix it?

I was done with W10 after M$ forced me to Anniversary Edition even with updates turned off and disabled. Went back to W7 where I will stay until something else comes along. Done with audio on the PC long ago anyway.
You can say that again!

Instead of complaining, switch to Linux, as I did ten years ago! No vermin, trojans, viruses, etc. No forced updates nor advertising shoved down your throat.
Incredible apps ranging from word processing to photo editing and audio players. And for a total software cost of zero, and no hardware upgrades needed either!
Actually, I am not complaining. I Love Windows 10 .... No plans to switch.

No, no, no, no. Not going there. No. I have wasted hundreds of hours of my life trying to get things to work properly /at all in countless versions on desktop Linux.
On the rare occasions that things were working mostly like I wanted an update, bug, or whatever would just knock it all down a day or two later and I would spend hours getting back to almost as good as what I had before it broke. Rinse and repeat.No. Evil Not going there anymore. Whoever said that Linux was only free if your time has no value was a genius.

Your experience is 180 degrees from mine. There is, as with everything, a small learning curve, but the newer versions of various distros are a breeze to install and keep running smoothly.
You pays yer money and takes yer choice, as with everything else!
The learning curve is even smaller on Mac but the reliability of UNIX and many of it's features are all there under the hood for those who like to explore. Coming from a UNIX background, including IRIX, SunOS, Solaris, Mac OS X, it's not hard to see why I enjoy the Mac as much as I do.

I'm in a Unix world most of the time, currently Munix, Apple's version of BSD. It's great for servers, set them up and forget them, but getting them set up can be baffling for the novice.
The GUIs are getting slick on the Linux flavors, but I also need to run too many Windows programs for it to work for my desktop.

I think both perspectives are valid. I put linux on my wife's laptop years ago after spending too much time with viruses, trojans etc. And I use linux for a music server. It did take some time to load flash etc., and the linux learning curve is not trivial. But once things that I/we need are loaded it is rare that I need to do anything to either laptop or music server. So for those that don't mind learning linux or already have the familiarity it is a very good alternative. Regarding Microsoft OS's, support tends to be more intuitive, and it is easier to find assistance when needed than linux.
Anniversary Edition is widely known to sound like carp.
Now you are driving your Ferrari on the beach.
