  1. How do I stop Windows 11 from automatically adjusting volume during VOIP


    For years, Windows has had a "feature" in which if you are in a VOIP call on desktop e.g. a Whatsapp call, it will automatically reduce the volume of any other app Chrome, Spotify, etc.. For previous versions of Windows, it was fairly easy to turn off. However, I cannot figure out where to turn it off in Windows 11. Any ideas? Thanks!

    :)

    How do I stop windows 10 adjusting microphone volume automatically

    I have connected my monitor to my PC's microphone port with a 3.5mm audio cable so that I can connect my Playstation 4 to the monitor and have the sound come through the PC. This has worked ok, but the problem I'm encountering is that the volume is automatically adjusting so that it is quiet when the game is quiet and loud when the game is loud.

    I believe this is because Windows 10 automatically adjusts microphone volume so that it doesn't pick up background noise. Does anyone know if it's possible to stop it from doing this?

    How do I stop Windows 11 from automatically adjusting volume during VOIP

    Streaming video, sound adjust automatically

    Hi, First to answer your questions.

    • Have you made any recent changes prior to this issue?
    No I haven't made changes.

    • Which build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    Windows 10 Home

    Version 1709

    OS Build 16229.248

    • Does this happen only when streaming videos?
    Yes. As I stated above I can record on audacity with no trouble. Using the same setup to stream video volume adjusts automatically.

    Method 1

    I went through the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter. It said there were issues which it corrected. I restarted as directed. No change to the streaming video volume issue.

    Method 2

    the article is about playback not recording. I accomplished all of that in Method 1.

    The same question still applies, How do I stop the volume from auto adjusting when I stream video?
