Feel free to ask me for more details and I’ll do my best to answer them!

  2. Windows 10: Microphone and Headphone Recognition issues.

    Hi Armandill,

    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with Windows 10. I will certainly help you.

    This issue might occur if there is change in audio settings.

    To assist you better, please provide us the information below:

    • When you say that "1/8 inch cable port
      Are you referring that there is no headphone port or microphone port on the computer?
    • Have you checked the computer specification regarding the audio ports?

    I suggest you to check if speaker and microphone driver is available in the Device Manager or not.

    1. Press Windows Key + R Key.

    2. Then type “devmgmt.msc” without the quotes and hit on Enter Key.

    3. Expand Audio inputs and outputs.

    4. Check if microphone and headphone driver is available or not.

    Please get back to us with an update on issue with headphone and microphone usage on Windows 10, we will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

    Headphone with built in microphone uses as Microphone, not Headphone


    Okay, so I have an Asus laptop with Windows 10. I am using an Ultimate Ears Headphone with built in microphone. The problem is that i want to use the headphone part, but all the the laptop registers is the microphone.
