Unable to Access Microphone, Please Check System Settings FIX In Windows 10

Windows 10 may not hear your microphone’s audio for several reasons. All the usual PC microphone troubleshooting steps are still important, but Windows 10 contains a new system‑wide option that completely disables microphone input in all applications. The Settings app has options that disable your microphone system‑wide, and if your webcam is disabled in Settings, even desktop applications can’t receive microphone input. App permissions under Settings → Privacy affect new Store apps, but microphone and webcam options also affect desktop applications. If your microphone isn’t working, go to Settings → Privacy → Microphone and ensure “Microphone access for this device is on.” If it’s off, click “Change” and set it to “On.” This tutorial applies to computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, and Windows 7, and works for major manufacturers such as Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, and Samsung.
