  2. Search for "C-Media" or "Xear"
  3. Click the three dots → Uninstall
  4. Also remove the driver: Device Manager → right-click C-Media device → Uninstall device → check "Delete driver software"

Once installed, the Xear icon should appear in your System Tray (bottom right, near the clock). If it’s not there: Search for "Xear Audio Center" in the Start Menu.
