Windows 10: Phone companinion Microphone permissions

The phone companion app has speaker access but it doesnt even want access to the microphone in the permissions.Phone calls are always one sided..... Is there something in the app preferences to allow it to use web cam mic, headset mic, usb mic like cortana?

Chrome not existent in microphone permissions

I have a microphone hooked up to my computer, and every "Allow _ to access the microphone" is enabled including unknown applications. Google Chrome does not appear in the list, and it is the only application being denied for permissions. Is there a way
to force Windows to add Chrome to the unknown application list and give it permission to use the microphone?

Hi Moustafa,

This issue occurs due to permission issue, driver issue, license for an app is out of sync with the license installed on the computer or if the app is not updated. To give permission to Camera and Microphone app, you may follow
these steps:

• Go to Settings.
• Select Privacy.
• Look for Camera, make sure that “Let apps use my camera” is turned On. You may choose the apps that can use your camera as well.
• Go back to Privacy and select Microphone, make sure that “Let apps use my microphone” is turned On. You may choose the apps that can use your microphone as well.

microphone permission

Hi Jean,

What browser are you using? You'll also need to give permission to the website on your browser for it to use the microphone. For now, please make sure that your microphones are working properly. Here's how:

• 
  Right-click the volume icon on the taskbar and select Recording Devices.
  
• 
  In the Recording tab, look for green bars rising as you speak into your recording device. If the bars are moving, your device is connected and working properly.
  

Let me know if there's anything else you need.
