Windows 10: Isolate Mic from Headset

Hi,


I am using a headset that came with my samsung phone and the mic is starting to play up. How can i isolate my headsets mic so that i only use the mic that came with my Lenovo Ideapad S340 and not use the mic in my headphones, but still use the headphones as an audio output

Kind Regards

Headset with Mic "not plugged in," clearly plugged in... Win10

We would like to know more about the issue by answering the following questions below:

• Have you tried using other headsets with mic on your computer and check if it's working fine?
• Have you also tried to insert or use that headset with mic that came with your computer to other computers or devices? This will help us isolate the issue if it's related to your Windows 10 PC or to the headset with mic.

We look forward to your response.

 

Mic picking up audio output from headset.

Either they are playing around with you or you have a chat running, with the MIC allowing everything, no matter what. Suggest unhooking your headset when not using.

 

Laptop not splitting headset mic & audio?

Hi
Simple version. When i plug in my headset to my laptop windows10 is not splitting it into one output and one input.

I fixed this years back by setting the popup box 'whats plugged in' from headphone to headset. Then it split the audio and mic. However i had to reinstall windows and now when i select headset it just mutes my laptop mic and audio manager just shows the one mic, but two audio outputs.

It was working before the reset and i have tested the headset on another computer and it is working find.
So far i tried device manage audio driver install, for both Realtek driver and High Definition driver but either resolve the issue.

Any suggestions why windows would pick up one and not the other?

I currently have it set to headphone plugged in so that i can use my laptop mic, but ive been told i sound really bad *Sad

Cheers,
Zola
