Hi @FarSkyWalker,

I understand that you're looking to install drivers (sound and touchpad) for your HP Pavilion Plus Laptop 16-ab0000nr (92K36UA) after installing Windows 10 22H2 as a secondary operating system.

While Windows 10 22H2 may not be officially listed in the HP Drivers portal for this model, I’d be happy to guide you through alternate steps to get the drivers you need.

Use Compatible Windows 10 Drivers

Select Windows 10 (64-bit) if listed.

Download the drivers under these categories:

It will automatically install the most compatible drivers for your system.

Update via Device Manager (Manual Method)

Press Windows + X > Select Device Manager.

Expand:
