Windows 10: USB microphone showing up in other devices instead of input

I recently got a usb microphone Maono AU-AO4E. I believe that this is supposed to be a plug and play device but it is not working as expected. When I plug it into the USB port the decide shows up in “other devices” but not “input”. It is not an input option under sound as a result of this. The device shows up under “Sound, video and game controllers” but not “Audio inputs and outputs” in the device manager. I have tried uninstalling the driver to no luck. How do I get this device to be recognized as an input option?

microphone randomly disconnected and wont show up in input devices

I got my zealsound microphone about 3 months ago. Worked fine until a day or two ago, when it randomly disconnected. It no longer shows up on my input devices menu at all. Ive tried replugging in every part of the microphone, and it seems to have power as the light is on. I have tried multiple USB ports but it still does not show up.

Currently, the only input device listed is my headset, which I'm currently forced to use. Any ideas?

 

All usb microphone inputs not working


So both my adapter for xlr to 3.5mm jack input and my newly purchased usb microphone are not recognised. I've tried updating the drivers, using different usb ports, uninstalling the drivers and letting windows do it manually. Every time though, it's listed as having issue's in device manager... Can some help?

 

USB Microphone not showing up as an input in Windows settings

Okay, a couple things:

1. Thanks for replying quickly, seriously, I appreciate it

2. However, I don't think you read my post in its entirety as I stated "but the microphone no longer was listed as an input device. In fact, it wasn't showing up anywhere anymore."

The microphone just doesn't show up in the list of inputs anymore



Internal
AUX Jack is a virtual mic only used when using Remote Play on Steam and the Oculus Virtual Audio Device is just the Mic on my VR headset.
The USB mic this post is about is plugged in and doesn't show up in this list as you can see.





When it's plugged in, it doesn't show up as an Audio Input or Output device, but in the picture below, you can see that my system is recognizing that the device is plugged in but it's
not showing up as the type of device it should be. (The USB Microphone that is the subject of this post is circled red.)





Please read carefully this time so there's no confusion. Thanks in advance
