Windows 10: Windows 10 update broke my Plantronics Gamecom 780 driver and now I am stuck with stereo...

I am at my wits end here. I have spend hours googling to try and fix this enormous fuckup. Everything was well and good until I got sick of being pestered to restart my computer for an update, so I did. When I restarted, I noticed that the taskbar icon was gone. Restarting the executable did nothing, nor did repeated reinstalls.

As this only happened when I updated, I tried to remove the updates, but apparently they are critical updates or some crap and they cannot be removed.

How do I fix this shit? Once in the past I neutered windows update to be permanently disabled and I am starting to regret forcing an update to re-enable it. I am already tired of being stuck with a useless pair of overpriced headphones that won't play in surround and whose buttons won't do anything.

Problem with headsets

Hello

I currently own Gamecom780 headsets, and i just discovered ... as i installed Win10, that i cannot install it's driver software, wich means, i get stuck with stereo.

I followed these steps:

-
http://soundingboard.plantronics.com/community/forums/gamecom-780/blog/2014/11/16/how-to-install-gamecom-780-driver-on-windows-10

But still got nothing, got stuck, with a message saying, that the software was not compatible.

I emailed plantronics, and they said that they could do little about this matter.

I'm posting this here, because i literaly do not know where should i actualy post this situation.

What should i do?

Plantronics Unveils GameCom 780 7.1 Headset

Plantronics unveiled its latest headset for professional gamers, the GameCom 780. The headset is probably scheduled to be launched at CES, but a presentation related to it was leaked to the web. The GameCom 780 is a large-sized over-the-ear headset with a rounded quadrilateral shape instead of round, the optimally fit the contours of the ears. While it's 2-channel, it features virtual 7.1-channel surround.

It connects to the PC over USB, and packs a native logic that processes Dolby Headphone and Dolby Pro Logic IIx technologies. Each of the two cans features a 40 mm driver. The cans are suspended on hinges and can swivel to fold the headset up for transportation. The head band is thickly cushioned. The noise-cancelling microphone is suspended by a hinged-armature. The headset has a braided 2 m long USB cable.
