    Earbuds and microphone aren't being recognized by my pc after reinstalling windows


    Recently I've completely reset my PC and reinstalled windows 10. Now my earbuds and microphone wont get recognized by my pc. If I try to troubleshoot it'll say "Make sure your device is plugged in then try again," but I have them plugged in. I've tried installing and updating the drivers too, I know nothing's wrong with the port because they both worked just fine before restarting, I've also tried all kinds of troubleshooting. I've followed many tutorials and guides but nothing seems to work. Any help please? Thanks!

    :)

    Built-in microphone on earbuds not being recognized

    I am using "Sony - EX14AP Wired Earbud Headphones". I only have one multi-functional jack, which is picking up the headphones aspect perfectly, but is in no way recognizing the microphone. I haven't messed with any settings regarding my microphone before and I've followed several online tutorials and possible troubleshooting from multiple different forums and websites; all it has done is sent me in circles with nothing even coming close to a solution. I've been in every nook-and-cranny of my system relating to audio, microphone, headphones, speakers, auto-play, etc. I've tried "adding a new device", I've looked in every drop-down box, I've updated my system and windows, and have gotten absolutely no help.

    It's even more baffling that everything was fine with my old pair of earbuds, which was the exact same model. I'm getting frustrated not being able to use my mic properly; the one built into my laptop picks up sound improperly through applications that I'm using which is bugging me and the people I'm trying to talk to. Has anyone had the same problem and found any possible solution?

    Earbuds microphone[Solved]

    Hello I have some random earbuds with microphone but they work in phone. When I plug them into pc into mic jack it doesnt work. When I blow straight into microphone it doesnt detect any sound but when I blow into headphone it does. I tried turning volume up, changing all settings. Like all of options and nothing worked. I also tried different earbuds but they didnt work as well. I also tried to plug them into my sisters laptop but neither my nor other earbuds worked... I did not yet tried splitter but I will soon, but I dont know if this would help because built in mic should work when connected to microphone jack slot. When I plug them into headphone slot I they play sounds but I cant set mic to work. Any solutions ?

    Microphone VS Earbuds

    my sony earphones were destroyed, so I've bought earbuds instead of it. These earbuds have their own mic under button (there is a button on the cable, that enables microphone from earbuds). Yesterday I've unfortunately clicked this little button, and my
    mic in the laptop has been changed for this one in earbuds. now my microphone in the laptop isn't working, even with unplugged earbuds
