To record audio from a YouTube video using the Voice Recorder app on Windows 10, you need to ensure that the app is set up to capture system audio, not just microphone input. Here are the steps to achieve this:

1. Enable Stereo Mix:
   
   • Right-click on the speaker icon in your system tray and select "Open Sound settings."
     
   • Scroll down and click on "Sound Control Panel" under the "Related Settings" section.
     
   • In the Sound window, go to the "Recording" tab.
     
   • Right-click in the window and select "Show Disabled Devices."
     
   • Find "Stereo Mix," right-click on it, and select "Enable."
     
   • Set "Stereo Mix" as the default recording device by right-clicking on it and selecting "Set as Default Device."
     
2. Configure Voice Recorder:
   
   • Open the Voice Recorder app from the Start menu.
     
   • Click the blue microphone button to start recording. With Stereo Mix enabled, the app should now capture all audio playing through your computer, including YouTube videos.
     

If you encounter any issues with the Voice Recorder app not working correctly, here are some troubleshooting steps:

1. Update the Voice Recorder App:
   
   • Go to "Start" > "Settings" > "Apps" > "Apps & features."
     
   • Scroll down to "Voice Recorder," click on it, and select "Advanced options."
     
   • Click "Reset" and then restart your computer. Check for updates in the Microsoft Store and install any available updates for the Voice Recorder app.
     
2. Update Audio Drivers:
   
   • Open "Device Manager" from the Start menu.
     
   • Expand "Sound, video, and game controllers."
     
   • Right-click on your audio device (e.g., Realtek Audio) and select "Update driver."
     
   • Choose "Search automatically for updated driver software" and follow the prompts.
     
3. Run the Audio Troubleshooter:
   
   • Go to "Start" > "Settings" > "Update & Security" > "Troubleshoot."
     
   • Select "Recording Audio" and click "Run the troubleshooter." Follow the on-screen instructions to resolve any detected issues.
     
4. Check Microphone and App Permissions:
   
   • Go to "Start" > "Settings" > "Privacy" > "Microphone."
     
   • Ensure that "Allow apps to access your microphone" is turned on.
     
   • Scroll down and make sure the Voice Recorder app has permission to access the microphone.
