Windows 10 Voice Recognition

Hi Bennett,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

There are several possible causes of the problem:

• The microphone might not be close enough to pick up your voice- Make sure that the microphone is positioned close enough and that you are speaking directly into it.
• The microphone is muted- Some microphones have an external control for muting. Make sure the mute control is turned off.
• The microphone input level is too low- Make sure that the microphone input level is set properly.

I suggest you to refer to the following Microsoft article on
Use voice recognition in Windows 10 and check if it helps.
