Having trouble getting your headset mic working on your PC? Between hardware and software there is a lot of different things that could be causing the problem but in my experience the main reason microphones won't work is due to some simple Windows software settings that need to be properly configured. In this video I go over the most common settings and show you how to properly configure them. Usually you just need to adjust a few things in the Sounds settings in Windows Control Panel or in the Realtek HD Audio Manager (aka Realtek Audio Console) to get your mic working. Sometimes you'll need to grant permission in the Windows Privacy settings or simply switch the input device and output device settings in your games or other applications. I'll walk you through all of these in this video and with any luck one of these tips will get your headset mic working so you can game, stream and voice chat to you hearts content. Cheers! :)
Here's the link to my video where I show how to change the Windows Privacy settings to get your mic working - • Headset Mic Quit Worki...
Want to know the difference between a 3 pin TRS and a 4 pin TRRS 3.5mm audio connector? They're both very common but there's a difference between them and it's very helpful to know and understand what that difference is. - • Why Doesn't My Headset...

I find it extremely unpractical that Windows 10 (and other versions of Windows BTW) make it so difficult to fix a microphone sound. All possible sound settings related to a microphone in Windows should be placed at ONE and only ONE single central place inside the control panel. And in there, there should also be a button that says "reset microphone to default settings" that works. We really don't care of all possible settings: all we want is that it works, that's it. Also there should be another separate tab for headphone & speaker with all possible settings, and the settings must be on that page, not some kinds of links that bring us to another page.

ive tried every method in the video and even tried uninstalling the realtek audio driver (which didn't work even after restarting my pc) and my mic still wont work. ive tried every aux port on my motherboard and case as well as a usb connection and even reset my cmos and updated by bios but it still wont work. The settings read the mic as being plugged in but either no input is received, static is blasted at full volume, or the mic receives the output signal coming through the headphones. I've used multiple mics and still no luck. Tried opening the realtek audio control but when the application opens it doesn't load. if you can find the time to help me out i would really appreciate it, thanks.

Hey Maraksot! I learned a lot from your watching your video. However, the problem that prompted me to go down this rabbit hole of "how to fix headset" videos, still persists. My beats solo2 headphones are not being recognized my laptop (new acer nitro.) The prompt comes up asking if its "mic in, line out, headset-phones," etc... And the audio will come in if i select headset. But my laptop seemingly doesn't recognize the beats otherwise, they cannot be found under sound device settings, through the control panel, or anywhere. I know they work just fine, testing them on other devices, and audio coming through via the pc. But it's as if my laptop dislikes beats, cause it's telling me there is nothing plugged in the 3.5 input, while jamming my tunes through the very beats plugged in em. Are these heaphones just incompatible or is there a trick you maybe could share? I'd like to use these as a microphone, and my investigating has been fruit less. Any help would be majorly appreciated. Thank you.

So I have that double connector thing and my headset is called Crusher Wireless Headset. I lost the cords that came with the box but I recently bought the double connectors hoping I would be able to listen to my mic. So far my mic isn't working as intended and my discord is on Input Microphone Realtek R audio and my output is Speakers/Headphones Realtek R. I don't see my headset settings on there at all. So when I want to enter a call I can hear the person but the person cannot hear me. Can someone help? :(

Went over ALL these basic steps even with uninstalling and reinstalling drivers. Still not working. They are not muted by the way. So when you go into recording and go to adjust levels it will not let me adjust levels in there. It is stuck on 0%. I am so confused..

Was so mad the whole time but I found this video and it was the Windows update that reset my microphone settings in the settings app.

I’ve checked everything my headset sounds fine on my phone and ps4 but for my pc i have to cup my hand around the mic to be audible just ending up with the quality sounding awful what do i do. This has happened with two headsets now and im pretty confident in saying i’ve checked everything on my computer, is there some sort of issue with my pc or the type of headphones i use?

Love how I feel like an idiot because my mic was somehow muted, lmao. Didn’t see that until I went to the Realtek console though. Thanks for the help.

My mic is honestly confusing me really bad it's showing up in my headphones and I can hear audio out of it but when I try and set it to my mic it doesn't show it as an available option. When I went to the window's control panel it popped up but said it wasn't plugged in even though it was. It has a 3.5 mm audio jack and a usb cord but that is only used to have the lights on the headset light up. It was working perfectly fine a few months ago but hasn't been allowing my headset mic to connect since. I'm not sure what is wrong or going on with it.

Oh man, do I feel stupid. RealTek Console had my headset muted, thus making everything else like Discord not recognize my mic, however I could hear anyone speaking, even music. I tried everything and was ready to return it, lol. Thank you for posting this video, seriously, no other articles I read mentioned the Manager.

I have a pair of Philips bluetooth headset that changes the sound quality, a lot, as soon as the mic is connected in the settings. so a game might sound great without mic, but as soon as i enable the mic, the sound quality is crap. its like it switches mode. and its only if I disconnect the mic in windows settings, that the sound quality goes back up... i don't know how to solve it. there's no software support for the headphones. so im left with windows settings that does not fix it...I don't know what to do. any help/succestions?
