Windows 10: How can I input audio into my laptop

Hi, I have been using my old tower computer which has two audio inputs, one from a microphone and another from a 3.5 mm line input socket. I do quite a lot of sound recording and editing. On my new laptop there is no provision for a line input. Is it possible to input audio via a usb port or other input, the mic input doesn't seem to work. Gordon.
P.S. I am using Windows 10.
