  3. my head phone mic is not working in window 10

    Hello Jaxon,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10!

    I understand that your headphone mic is not working in Windows 10 operating system. I will certainly help you with the query.



    This issue might be occurring because the microphone might not be set as a default device or there might be any error in settings also. Hence I would suggest you to follow the below mentioned steps and check if that helps.



    Method 1:
    Recording Audio troubleshooter


    The built-in recording audio troubleshooter can automatically detect and fix most of the incorrect settings and errors that could cause issues with headphone or microphone. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if there is any
    issue with the microphone. Refer top these steps:


            • Open Control Panel

            • Click on Troubleshooting and select the
              view all option on the left pane

            • Click on Recoding Audio troubleshooter and follow the prompts.

    Try method 2, if the issue persist



    Method 2: If the Recording Audio troubleshooter do not fix the
    issue then I would suggest you to follow the below mentioned steps to set the microphone as a default device:


        • Right click on the “Sound icon” on the bottom right of the desktop screen

        • Click on “Sounds”, click on “Recording

        • Right click on “Microphone” and then click on “Set as default device

        • Click on “Apply” and then “OK
