  1. How Do You Choose a Different Mic in Game Bar?


    Hi, i'm rather new to the Game Bar and Windows 10 itself

    and i would like to know how to change a preferred microphone when recording with XBOX Game Bar

    for instance, the current situation i'm having is that i have my USB Microphone Headset and would like to use that instead of the built-in microphone(which i guess it's the Default) on my laptop, is there any way to do this? i didn't found any solution so far, or perhaps it is just me who searched the wrong key word..


    Note : i know that it's called "XBOX Game Bar" but then i set this topic to Windows Setting cause' essentially the XBOX Game Bar is in Windows Setting..

    :)

  2. Xbox Game Bar Capture Doesn't Record Mic Audio

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are facing issues while recording microphone audio using game bar while playing games.



    I would suggest you to try troubleshooting Game Bar and see if that helps. Refer the article

    Troubleshoot Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10




    In addition, you can also check if the Microphone for game bar is enabled under privacy settings.



    1. Go to Settings (press Windows +
      I key together) > Privacy.
    2. On the left hand pane scroll down and look for
      Microphone
      .
    3. Toggle Allow apps to access Microphone
      to ON.
    4. Under Choose which Microsoft Store app can access your Microphone toggle Xbox game bar to
      ON.
    5. Restart the game bar.


    If the issue persists, please get back to us with details of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.

    How Do You Choose a Different Mic in Game Bar?

    G433 Gaming Headset Mic is not working

    I have no problem with the audio, only with the mic.

    I don't have another headset to check with.

    I am having this issue in all games and applications.
