    Voice Recorder Failing to Open


    I have been having a problem with my voice recorder. I will click on the icon to open the application. For a split second it acts as if will open but it crashes and closes immediately without opening completely. I have already tried resetting the app but that did nothing. Troubleshooting has also been unable to find any problems.

    :)

    Microsoft Voice Recorder Windows 10 will not open

    For some reason Microsoft Voice Recorder decided it will not open. The icon is still on the start menu, but nothing happens.

    I looked to see if I can uninstall and reinstall but it is not listed with the apps.

    Any suggestions?

    Windows 10 Home edition, HP Desktop Computer

    Thanks for the help.

    Hello Linda,

    Issues with Windows 10 apps can usually be fixed by running the troubleshooter for Windows apps. To do that, you may refer to the link below:

    Run the troubleshooter for Windows apps

    If the problem persists, you may try to reinstall Voice Recorder by doing the following:

    • Type in Powershell in the search field and hit Enter.
    • Right-click on Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.
    • Click on Yes.
    • In the PowerShell box, type in or copy and paste Get-AppxPackage *soundrecorder* | Remove-AppxPackage, and press Enter.
    • Once Voice Recorder is uninstalled, open the Store app, download, and install Voice Recorder.

    Also, we suggest that you refer to the troubleshooting steps for fixing Cortana and Start menu on the link below:

    Voice Recorder Failing to Open

    Voice Recorder Flags Disappeared

    Hi,

    I realize the problem you are facing with the voice recorder.

    To assist you better, please answer the below:


    • Are you using windows built-in voice recorder or any other 3rd party voice recorder application?

    • If you are using Build in Windows recorder, how did you put the flag?
    If you are using built-in Windows recorder, there is no option to put a flag on recorded voice. Provide us the screenshot of recording interface with Flag.

    Refer the steps given in the below link to provide us screenshots:

    In case if you are using any 3rd party recorder, then I suggest you to contact the developer of the application for further help.

    Thank you.
