Quick answer
When one app can record your voice, check the failing app input selection and microphone permissions before buying another microphone.
Understand the issue
Make a short recording in an app you trust, then compare the meeting or recording app that fails. Note whether the microphone is missing from its list or appears but produces no level. This gives a clearer starting point than describing all sound as broken.
Step-by-step checks
- Check the selected input in the failing app.
- Review Windows microphone access for apps and desktop apps.
- Retest with the same microphone and a short recording.

What the results mean
Permissions and input selection operate at different levels. Allow only the applications you intend to use, then verify the actual recording result.
| Stage | Action |
|---|---|
| Start | Check the selected input in the failing app. |
| Compare | Review Windows microphone access for apps and desktop apps. |
| Next step | Retest with the same microphone and a short recording. |

Conclusion
Permissions and input selection operate at different levels. Allow only the applications you intend to use, then verify the actual recording result. Keep a note of the result so a technician can continue from the evidence rather than repeat the same checks.
