  These error messages are a pain in the neck to extract useful information.

  I suggest that you do a search online 'pilot audio free downloads' and find another audio program for your PC.

  If you find something that works for your satisfaction - remove your original pain in neck audio software and make sure you make your audio program newly found the 'default' device.

  Realtek and NVIDIA, for example get stuff good free audio driver.

  If the new program does not work - it would be a good indication that you have hardware on your PC, drive problems and no amount of play more with to try to correct the audio software will help. Period

• How to open the window updates "Adobe Application Manager"?

  How to open the window updates "Adobe Application Manager"? Or I can or should I...?

  I am a brand new Member of cloud.  I heard about the update of the retina.  Assuming that's where updates seems logically I went first to the application "Adobe Application Manager".  Without closing the "Adobe Application Manager" I open Photoshop and went to the Help menu and select "Updates."... » ; a second window in the Application already handler open "Adobe".

  I chose the update of all.

  The result is less to:

  DW CS6 12.1 creative cloud

  There was an error of installation of this update. Quit and try again later. Error code: U44M1I200

  Dreamweaver CS6 12.0.1 update to address critical issues

  Adobe Media Encoder CS6 Update 6.0.2

  There was an error of installation of this update. Quit and try again later. Error code: U44M1I200

  Now, I closed "Adobe Application Manager" and reopened "Photoshop" and again selected "updates... " on the Help menu.  The "Adobe Application Manager" opened again with just a window this time and the updates happened correctly.

  I was hoping a updates would be the "Adobe Application Manager", I don't think so.

  So, if I were you I would not select "Updates."... "in an Adobe application unless the " Adobe Application Manager " is closed until they fix IT...

  Current version: Adobe® Application Manager - Version 7.0.0.128 (7.0.0.128) notes the two windows in the "Adobe Application Manager" in the attached image.

  
  

  If you read my entire post you would have seen that after closeing "Adobe Application Manager" updates completed normally next time I chose "updates... "in the Help menu in Photoshop.
