Windows 10: Xbox Game Bar Mic isnt working

Xbox game bar microphone stopped working out of the blue. It was literally working an hour ago before this was posted but now the microphone doesn't pick up my voice, even it the rest of my PC picks it up. I've already reset and repair the xbox companion and the gamebar. They cant hear me but i can hear them.

Xbox Game Bar Capture Doesn't Record Mic Audio

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while recording microphone audio using game bar while playing games.



I would suggest you to try troubleshooting Game Bar and see if that helps. Refer the article

In addition, you can also check if the Microphone for game bar is enabled under privacy settings.

1. Go to Settings (press Windows +
   I key together) > Privacy.
   
2. On the left hand pane scroll down and look for
   Microphone.
   
3. Toggle Allow apps to access Microphone
   to ON.
   
4. Under Choose which Microsoft Store app can access your Microphone toggle Xbox game bar to
   ON.
   
5. Restart the game bar.
   

If the issue persists, please get back to us with details of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.

Microphone not working with Xbox game bar

My son is trying to record his playing on roblox using Xbox game bar. He is using a laptop on windows 10.

It was working fine a few days ago. Now he is having problems with the microphone. When he brings up the xbox game bar, (windows G), the menu says that the microphone is not working because of privacy settings.

When I go to the privacy settings for microphone, I gave permission to use the microphone for all the listed apps. But xbox game bar is not one of the listed apps. I also tried "reset" on the xbox game bar which did not help.

How can I give permission to the xbox game bar to access the microphone?

Microphone itself is working. I can use it on Cortana.

Thanks

HW
