Windows 10: Laptop Noises When Recording Through Microphone After Windows Update

I need help guys, after i updated to windows 10 ver 1909 , there's a lot of noise when i am recording through the mic. Before i updated it , recording was fine , it didn't had any extra noises . I just suddenly had some noises after update that i can even barely hear what i'm recording. All I hear is just some static noises that is as loud as my recording.

Any tips?

Realtek inbuilt laptop microphone records white noise only

Recently my laptops in built microphone has not been working properly. When I attempt to record with it the actual file output is just a file that plays back white noise. I assume its a driver problem as the microphone is still seen by the OS and manages to "record" however the eventual output is just white noise. The problem doesn't seem to be volume either as even after applying a 20db boost to the microphone it still only outputs white noise. I am using a realtek (r) audio driver at version 6.0.1.8475. My OS version is windows 10, version 1809.

 

External microphone not showing in the Recording tab

My Windows 10 laptop is not recognizing any external microphones. I have two headsets: a Bluetooth one and one for an audio jack. Both headsets work correctly on other devices. When I connect the headsets to my computer, I can hear audio, but the microphones
do not work.

Here are the steps I've taken so far:

• Updated drivers (they were already up to date)
• From Sound Settings, headsets do not appear as options for the input device
• Ran the microphone troubleshooter - headsets do not appear as options
• From Control Panel > Sound > Recording, headsets do not appear as options. I have selected the disabled and disconnected devices options.
• From Microphone Privacy, all apps have access to the microphone.
  

That's everything I found online to fix this problem. Any suggestions?

 

Better microphone noise suppression in Windows 10?

Having acquired a new and supposedly good microphone (ModMic), I noticed that I'm still hearing a lot of noise in the recording - about as bad as with my old cheap microphone. I now think the reason is the quality of the sound card (it's the on-board sound card on Asus Z170 PRO GAMING motherboard). For the record, I hear very similar results from both microphone ports (front and rear). My microphone boost setting is at zero and the gain is at 100%, but I also tried different settings with similar results.

I tried to use two noise suppression tools:

1. The "Noise suppression" checkbox in Microphone Properties -> VoizReal Exp tab. This helps, but some background noise remains and it seems the voice is clipped.
   
2. The "Noise suppression" filter in OBS Studio. This works much better. No noise remains, and the voice quality is comparatively good.
   

The question is is it possible to apply a filter like (2) system-wide and not just in OBS Studio.
