Windows 10: Microphone being extremely quiet

I was calling my friend the other day and he noted that my microphone was extremely quiet to the point that he had to turn up his volume to the max to barely hear what I was saying. I did a microphone test and, sure enough, my microphone was really quiet. I use a relatively new pair of earbuds so maybe they've just stopped working? Thank you in advance.

Microphone extremely quiet

So for some odd reason, microphone input is really quiet.

I'm using Asus ROG Strix B350-F Gaming as my board so the microphone is being plugged into that. I've tried putting microphone boost and levels to 100% but the input is still really really quiet, if you're lucky you can hear a whisper if you're shouting down the mic.

I've tested the mic on other devices like my phone and it works fine but for some odd reason my desktop isn't being nice about it.

This is darn annoying and a massive inconvenience.

Things I've tried -
Uninstalled realtek and re-installed the latest driver
Set microphone boost and levels to max
Tested with 'Disable all sound effects' on and off

I'm out of luck at this point and I'm not entirely sure where to go from this. I'd love to get this fixed so some advice/help would be appreciated, thank you.

 

Microphone extremely quiet through 3.5mm jack

Hi. I got a new HP laptop (Victus 16dx000) and installed a Linux distro on it, where audio worked completely fine. Now I changed to windows 11 and I am having problems with my microphone volume, it's extremely quiet and nobody can hear me. I tried updating drivers (both from HP's site, Realtek's site and ones from Intel). I had the same microphone on another laptop with windows 11 (a lenovo) without any problems.

In the Recording Devices panel it seems that there is no difference between setting it to 100 or 1 volume, but setting it to 0 does completely mute the microphone.

I also tried a BT headset and that one seems to work perfectly fine.

 

My USB Headset microphone is extremely quiet.

The setting that the website is suggesting to turn on is already turned on. And my headset is detected, it's just extremely quiet. I think it's the drivers to be honest, but since no drivers (from the manufacturer) exist, I don't know what to do.

This is the page I visited to look for the drivers. They don't exist there. I'm not sure if there's a way to replace the Microsoft driver with another generic driver, but that'd be nice.
