Comment 9 for bug 1886696

Ok, so as to the sof fw version, I checked a bit and saw some things that unclear to me.
I compared the content of my '/lib/firmware/intel/sof' with that of the linux-firmware package from here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/1.187.1 (same as my version) and there are differences.
* tplg dir is missing in my folder
* I find occurences of the version fcf6c in those file:
   Binary file signed/debug/sof-icl.ldc matches
   Binary file signed/sof-icl-signed-intel.ri matches
   Binary file sof-icl.ri.orig matches
  and occurences 6cc8d of in those files:
   Binary file cnl/intel/sof-cnl-v1.3-6cc8da10.ri matches
   Binary file sof-cfl.ri matches
   Binary file sof-cml.ri matches
   Binary file sof-cml.ri.orig matches
   Binary file sof-cnl.ri matches
   Binary file sof-whl.ri matches
So it seems like there was a mix between the 2 version when I updated linux-firmware. What do you suggest to do here?

As to the windows issue - I didnt do anything special. I downloaded the standard windows using the usb creation tool from here if I recall: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
and installed it.
For the drivers I used their online tools: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-il/product-support/product/vostro-14-5490-laptop/drivers . It is very useful, I also
ran the hardware test to check everything. You should also download the SupportAssist software.
I attached a snap of my audio driver version, which is the same as the one in the link above as you can see.
