Error message during the installation of the sound card: an error occurred during the installation of the device__ "e/s operation was abandoned because of a thread exit or an application request." _

Hello
I can't update the audio driver on my PC. When you try to install the driver (new sound card), I get the following message is displayed:
There was a problem installing this hardware:
 
An error occurred during the installation of the device
"The IO operation has been abandoned due to a thread exit or an application request."
The driver worked fine on this computer until a month ago. I think it's more a problem of Windows installation as a driver issue, but I do not know where to go from here. Any suggestions?
Thank you
I tried to install the sound card on different PCI expansion slots. I get the same message trying to install a USB sound card. The sound properties in the control panel are classified outside (non-active)

Hello Smachbub,

Thank you for your message.  Let's try one or two different things.  Please follow step by step.
1. we will try to completely remove the previous sound card driver, then reinstall.
Click 'Start' > right click on 'My computer' > select 'manage '.
Click on Device Manager.
Click the (+) sign next to "sound, video and game controllers".
Below, you should see your audio card, right click and select "Properties".
Select the 'Drivers' tab and click 'uninstall '.
After uninstalling the driver, reboot and go to your computer manufacture or website of the manufacturer of the sound card and download/install the latest driver for your device.
If problems persist, try this same process as a new profile.
2. to create a new profile:
Click 'Start' > right click on 'My computer' > select 'manage '.
Double-click 'Users and groups' > select 'users '.
In the right pane, right click and select 'add a new user '.
Fill in the appropriate information, and then select 'create '.
The new user must be added, right click on the new user and select "Properties".
Select the tab "member of ' and click on 'Add '.
Type Administrators and click on "check names".
Once the name is entered correctly, click 'OK '.
Log off your computer and connect with the new credentials.  Then try removing and reinstalling the driver.
Please let us know if it did or did not help to solve your problem.
See you soon
