I've owned this computer for less than a week and the SD card reader has been working fine until the most recent automatic update. Now it will not register that there is an SD card in it. I've tried multiple cards and none have worked while they have worked in other computers. Any insight on how to fix this problem?

Same here. Realtek memory card reader stopped working after latest Windows 10 update. Tried installing the latest driver from Realtek but it didnt fix the problem. Please help, not having a working card reader is very annoying.
