THANK YOU! I thought something was wrong with my computer at first where I would need to get an external speaker. Turns out I accidentally turned off the microphone, now I can play my games on my laptop in peace.
Thanks for the video! I thought my Corsairs finally kicked the bucket, so I bought a boom mic so I could use my Sony 1000xm3's. Still no audio! Following your steps though I was able to see my headset was set to hands free AND audio. Disabled the hands free in playback, and boom, it works!
You are a legend. I have spend over an hour and the Microsoft sites were no use. Thank you for providing the information for me to fix it in seconds!!!
omg, you lifesaver!! spent all night trying to figure out why headset microphone wasn't working and with just a couple of clicks found you and fixed it! Thanks so much!!
Thank you, that is such an amazing fix, I just got my pc and I didn't know how to reconfigure my mic after I'd switched headset's about 5 times. Super simple, straight forward and smart tutorial, thank you very much!
I have the same problem, I use a headset and the headset came with a splitter, so when I plugged it in, the microphone tests work, however when I try to communicate in games, people can't hear my voice but they can hear the background noises such as youtube videos etc...
Hello, I had switched off my microphone and forgot where and how I'd done it, and after hours of failed attempts I remembered the setting that I'd changed by watching your video. Thanks a ton.
THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH! I was spinning trying to find a fix; and never would have resolved this without your help. The functional fixes (turning MIc On/Off, sound settings, trying to determine if it is a microphone driver issue, etc.) are completely non-intuitive!!! I and others, I am sure, never would have associated that Privacy folder to be the fix! Thanks again!
what about the set default option if not able to click it's grey then? as mic sound i checked the way you mentioned here but on sunds set default i am not able to click on it as it's locked.
Lol I had discord and when my friends where talking all MY VOLUME WAS muted! ( except my friends talking on the mic ) so this happen when I was playing base raiders, and so if you got that problem, well just go to your discord settings, Go to Voice & Video, Scroll down until you see ATTENUATION, Turn it 0% , And voila your done and that is how I fixed my sounds :D
I really want to thank you for this video. I was struggling to find the cause of my problem and it was a simple switch in the settings. I can now attend Zoom meetings :-)
why i cant see any more apps in "microphone" in settings than just voice recorder, Camera, Desktop app viewer, microsoft store, photos, and xbox game bar i cant see any more apps
Thank you so much, I've been scratching my head on why my mic was not working and even bought a new one to check if my mic was the issue and found this and it immediately solved it. Thank you
Just sent this to my friend who’s mic hasn’t been working for 2 years… It worked and i’m so dissapointed in him but his reaction was funny, Thanks lmao
When you're here for a deeper reason, for a game.
shh
How did you know?
FROM THE FUTURE
I just wanna play Phasmophobia :(
lmao i ended up getting voice mod for discord and vrchat and now my mic is all sorts of fucked up
I don't understand how helpful this can be for anyone when you're talking about the microphone settings, but you're actually in the speaker settings.
i agree.....
true. i think theyre bots
Its the same thing
your video is still saving lives in 2021, took me so many forums to finally find this video
Lmao its not there is no option lika that in the control panel
