Message Mentioning Voicemeeter when I Don't Have It

I don't understand this message because I checked my apps, files, and device manager. Still, I can't find anything related to Voicemeeter because I uninstalled Voicemeeter a few months ago anyway? So what does this message mean?

    Voicemeeter installs virtual audio drivers or services that can remain even after uninstalling the main program. These can sometimes cause system messages or prompts.

    This problem has been fixed in November 2024 with latest Voicemeeter version. Just install it and it should replace the old reference to previous drivers. 

     

    Otherwise you could use the powershell to display driver information, especially the publish name: "oemxxx.inf":

    pnputil /enum-drivers /class MEDIA | Select-String -Pattern 'vbvoicemeetervaio64_win10.inf' -Context 1,5

    then go in Windows Device Manager > View > Devices by driver and look for oemxxx.inf. Right click on it and select Remove driver.

    Even after uninstalling Voicemeeter, some leftover files or registry entries might still be on your computer. These remnants can sometimes cause messages or prompts, especially if some configuration files or drivers didn't get completely removed.
