    Microphone issues (Windows 11)

    Hello,

    I’m struggling to find a solution to a sudden issue with my microphone.
    All of a sudden for no apparent reason my microphone stopped working in the middle of using discord.

    I have tried to follow all the obvious steps that are offered as solutions via google or youtube. (

    ) Ive tried everything suggested here.
    1. I have checked hardware issues, including testing with two different headsets. Each one has the same issue of being visible and enabled but not picking up any sound.
    2. I’ve checked that the microphone is enabled in the windows via Device Manager.
    3. I’ve checked that the microphone is the default device.
    4. I’ve checked that the privacy setting are correct.
    5. I’ve run the audio troubleshooter without any luck..
    6. I’ve also updated all drivers associated with my microphone.

    I continue to have this issue. And am struggling to find any solutions to this problem. Nothing seems to work.

    I would love it someone has any ideas on what I can do to solve my issue.

    Try a system restore point to when it was working.

      Ive just given it a go. But it hasnt resolved the issue either. Ive tested both headsets and microphone is working.

      Thanks though, any other suggestions are much appreciated.

          I appreciate all your help. I have ultimate found out it was a hardware issue after doing a second thorough clean of the different ports on my computer.

          I would appreciate it if you could delete my 2nd msg with the GSI links and Speccy links.
