Microphone not working

[Gustavo Dutra]

Out of nowhere my mic doesnt work. I even bought a new headset and still the mic doesnt work. Neither on steam or discord.

You guys have any ideas ? At least i can listen....

If i put in windows for me to listen myself it works, but only if i enable that...

Check and see that Windows hasn't changed, or disabled your default input device to something that it shouldn't be

 

start menu - "sound settings" - input

Is the mic properly set up in the recording devices in the windows sound settings?

Have you checked for any driver updates?

I have just installed one right now, but nothing. Its something very deep. i have already tested all the basic stuff. What would be the worst case scenario you guys could think ?

Found the problem in windows menu selecting the privacy and then microphone theres an option called let the desktop apps use your microphone and that was turned off.....
