    I have a problem with my microphone. Over time, I learned that while talking on a microphone, I only hear myself on one headset while other people I talk to hear me on both headphones. It wasn't a problem for me until I tried to record something while I was talking, and then I learned that in my videos where I speak through a microphone, my voice is heard on only one headset and that's the way it is for everyone, which is already a problem for me. I don't know how to solve it, so please if anyone knows the answer let them write it will mean a lot to me.

    • Do you get an error when you're trying to use your microphone?
    • What is the make and model of your microphone?
    • How did you install your microphone to your Windows 10 PC? Kindly verify if the steps below are the same as the steps you have performed:

    To install a new microphone, follow these steps:


    • Right-click (or press and hold) the volume icon on the taskbar and select

      .

    • In the Recording tab, select the microphone or recording device you'd like to set up. Select
