Windows 10: Microphone not recognized

Hey so I bought a logitech g332se headset and for some reason my computer just doesn't recognize the microphone on it. I've corrected my privacy settings, looked in the control panel, and device manager. It just doesn't recognize it and i don't know how to get it to. I also looked to see if there were any drivers I needed to download and there weren't.

Please help! This is the second headset I've bought because of this problem, but now I'm pretty sure its just my computer

Hi Hassan,

Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

If a mic connected to this computer isn’t working properly then it’s likely a settings problem.

I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

• 
  Right-click on the speaker icon in the bottom-right part of the screen.
  
• 
  Click on ‘Recording Devices‘.
  
• 
  A list of recording devices will appear. Try speaking into your microphone, and see if there any
  green bars rising next to one of them while you talk.
  
• 
  If you don’t see any green bars skip to step 5.
  
• 
  Check if you can recognize which one of the devices in the list is your
  microphone. If you found it, click on it to highlight it, and then click
  Set Default.
  
• 
  Check again if you see green bars rising when you talk into the microphone. If you do your mic is now correctly setup. If not, continue to next step.
  
• 
  Double-click on the device that represents your microphone. The
  Microphone Properties window will appear. Click the Levels tab.
  
• 
  In the levels tab, drag the slider all the way to the right, until the number on the right says “100“.
  
• 
  Click OK and check if it helps.
  

Hope it helps, reply to us with the status of your issue. We will be happy to assist you.
