Hello,Recently, After upgrading my windows 11 21H2 to 22H2 my microphone stopped working. after doing several common problems that none worked out I gave up.Now I am in need of my microphone and no solution out there solved my problem so far. I literally did any possible and related solution to solve this but nothing.This problem happened right after upgrading to 22H2. I am fully sure that my microphone device is functionable and working on other PCs. I've already tried these solutions : Microphone device wire, cable and check its functionalityMicrophone access is ON at Privacy & Settings

Microphone not working properly after upgrade to 1803

After upgrade to 1803 my microphone is not working properly. I googeld and found many times this answer:

1. Hit Windows key and search for "microphone privacy settings"
2. Hit "Allow access to the microphone on this device"
3. Switch "Allow apps to access your microphone" to ON

Among the apps that are showing is Edge. There the mike is working, but on chrome and my games microphone is not working
