Install SBZxR and driver from 2013 from DVD in package.
Installing basic drivers, Plug Internet and update all Windows Updates. Removing sound card from computer, unplug Internet Cable, reinstalling Windows, directly 1709 version. Only good thing was because I should add only 20 euro of my money for these sound cards. Some people say buy SB AE-5, some buy RAID DLX. I was not sure that RAID DLX will be better and working. I gave up in lost moment because I fixed with some old driver from 2013 and restriction Sound Blaster Controller update over Hardware ID in gpedit.msc.
I almost sold sound card to upgrade on Strix RAID DLX. I had issue with Sound Blaster ZxR and Win10_1709_圆4. I'll have to give that a try, thanks for posting it. Do not restart the computer, even if prompted so. Go to Control Panel - Apps and Features and remove all Creative/Sound Blaster softwares. Have you tired doing a clean install of the latest driver?

Otherwise I'm right and this is a tragedy.Sometimes Windows 10 likes to install new drivers, it can cause issues. I would be embarrassed if my name was attached to it. I'm so bummed that the software is this bad.
I monitored and graphed and analyzed the Registry I/O using Process Explorer/Monitor and it was all over the place with the I/O overloading into bottlenecks. And of course the two 3.5 mm jacks hooked into each side of the optical input port. I have the Sound Blaster G3 and am hooked into the optical out from my ASRock x399 motherboard that is in sync with an LG OLED TV 55CXPUA that has Game Mode and AMD Freesync enhancements turned off using HDMI ARC. It affected every process window/GUI I had. It has made the OS stutter extremely badly, freeze up momentarily, has caused Rocket League running on Steam to freeze and have connection issues that would last two to three seconds before the screen would re-animate and as soon as I uninstalled it everything it smoothed out and so far has been perfect or as close as you can get to it. I can't use Windows 10 effectively anymore because of this software.
