  1. Aux input settings


    I just got a new mic that plugs into my AUX jack on my laptop. But when I plug it in I don't get a pop up asking if I plugged in a Mic, Headset, or Line in because I accidentally checked the box that says to not show this again. So the computer just automatically assumes I plugged in a headset when really I plugged in a Mic. How do I change that setting?

    :)

    Aux input problems.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community.

    In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below.

    1. What is the make and model of your system?
    2. Which build of Windows 10 is running on your system? To check that, click on
      Start, type winver and press
      Enter.
    3. Was there any change or an update on your system, prior to which you weren’t facing this issue?
    4. Are you able to hear the audio through your external speakers?
    5. Do you receive any prompt or error message when you connect your external speakers into the auxiliary input?

    Meanwhile, I would suggest you to refer the article to

    Fix sound problems in Windows 10
    , please refer the section ‘Set default device’ and check if it is useful to you.

    Note: The steps are also applicable for connecting an audio device using Aux port.

    We await your response.

    Setting the default input method for the Windows 10 login screen

    I had the same question but with French being the default on Windows 10 rather than the one I wanted so I ended up here.

    HoD is very close. I was able to use his suggestion to find the solution for me. This solution uses your current display and input language to change the Welcome screen and possible for new user accounts if you want. So make sure you have the display and input settings while logged in that you want to apply to the login screen before doing the steps:

    1. Click the language on the Taskbar.
    2. Then click Language preferences.
    3. At the bottom under "Related settings," click "additional date, time, & regional settings" which opens the control panel
    4. Click the "Region" option
    5. Then go to the far right tab "Administrative". (HoD's step 2)
    6. In the "Welcome screen and new user accounts" click copy settings. (HoD's step 3)
    7. Tick "Welcome screen and system accounts" (and "new user accounts" if you want it to be applied to those as well). (HoD's step 4)
    8. Click Ok. (HoD's step 5)

    I was able to use HoD's suggestion to find the solution here. It's for Windows 8.1, but works on 10 so far.

    Hope it will help you, too!
