    Laptop microphone randomly stopped working


    Yesterday upon using the laptop my microphone worked completely fine, now for some reason my laptop mic just completely stopped working, as well as any external microphone i plug into it. all drivers are updated, running the newest version of windows 10 even though yesterday when it was working i was using an older version.It definitely is NOT the fault of external microphones, since plugging and bluetooth connecting both earphones and headphones into different devices works fine, only when connecting and plugging into this laptop. have already googled and nothing has been able to help me at

    :)

    Microphone suddenly stopped working

    My microphone is still not working. I even checked the BIOS as someone had suggested but there is no listing for the microphone in there.
