如果您的麦克风无法在Windows 10上运行,您将需要执行以下故障排除步骤来修复它。您的麦克风无法拾取您的声音可能有多种原因,本指南将逐步引导您解决每个潜在问题。
希望在您完成我们的指南时,您的麦克风能够正常工作。还请务必阅读有关如何在 Windows 中启用麦克风的(how to enable a microphone in Windows)文章。
在我们开始之前,请务必找到麦克风的原始文档,或者至少找到麦克风型号和品牌名称,以便在必要时研究潜在的修复方法。
检查硬件连接
第一步是检查您的麦克风是否有故障的硬件连接。这很简单。首先(First),
拔下麦克风(unplug your microphone),然后重新插入(plug it back in)。您应该注意到表示Windows已识别新硬件的声音。
没有声音提示?打开开始菜单(Open the Start Menu )并搜索“设备管理器”。(search for ‘Device Manager’.) 单击(Click)出现的第一个选项。
接下来,单击以展开设备管理器中的(Device Manager)音频输入和输出(Audio inputs and outputs )部分。插入麦克风后,它应该会出现在此处。
如果您在此处看不到麦克风,请将其拔下并重新插入。( unplug it and plug it back in again.)
还是没有出现?拔下它,然后将其插入另一个 USB 端口(plug it into a different USB port)。如果它仍然没有出现在设备管理器(Device Manager)中,您应该尽可能尝试使用不同的电缆。此外,请尝试将其插入另一台Windows计算机,以防万一您当前计算机上的某些内容已损坏。
如果这是不可能的,或者其他电缆没有帮助,则可能是您的麦克风有问题,您需要将麦克风送回维修、退款或购买新的。
检查是否需要驱动程序
如果您可以在此处看到您的麦克风,请右键单击它,然后单击Properties。接下来,单击驱动程序(Driver )选项卡。从这里,单击更新驱动程序(Update Driver)。之后,单击自动搜索更新的驱动程序软件。(Search automatically for updated driver software.)
如果没有找到,您应该在Google上搜索您的麦克风。搜索以查看麦克风制造商的网站上是否有可用的驱动程序。
大多数麦克风现在都是即插即用的,并且驱动程序安装在Windows 10中已成为过去,但在极少数情况下,可能需要下载官方驱动程序。
完成这些步骤后,重新访问您尝试在其中使用麦克风的应用程序并测试它现在是否可以工作。还是没有运气?继续下面的下一步(Move)。
检查 Windows 中的声音首选项
Windows有自己的默认音频设备,您可能需要先对其进行调整,然后才能使用麦克风。要在Windows(Windows)上调整您的声音首选项,请打开开始菜单(Start Menu)并键入音频。(Audio. )在此之后,单击管理音频设备(Manage audio devices)。
进入音频设备窗口后,单击“录制”( Recording )选项卡。在这里,找到您要使用的麦克风,然后右键单击它。首先(First),确保它显示禁用(Disable)选项。如果没有,请单击以启用它。
如果您在此处没有看到您的麦克风,您还可以单击“显示禁用的设备(Show Disabled Devices)”以确保它没有被隐藏。再次,您必须右键单击麦克风并选择启用,如果它确实显示为启用的设备。
如果给定选项,您还应该单击“右键单击麦克风后设置为默认设备” (Set as default device )。如果它已经是默认设置,您将看到一个绿色勾号和默认设备(Default Device)行。
你的麦克风还是不行吗?继续下面的下一步(Move)。
在蓝牙(Bluetooth)设备上禁用免提功能
如果您使用的是蓝牙(Bluetooth)设备但又想使用独立麦克风,则必须确保已禁用免提模式。您可以按照以下步骤执行此操作。
- 打开开始菜单
- 搜索管理音频设备( Manage Audio Devices)
接下来,在播放(Playback)和录制(Recording)选项卡上,右键单击任何免提蓝牙(Bluetooth)设备,然后单击禁用(Disable)选项。
完成这些步骤后,在任何选定的应用程序中试用您的麦克风。如果它仍然不起作用,还有两个步骤可以尝试。
检查(Check Sound Settings)语音通信应用程序(Voice Communication Apps)中的声音设置
我们建议您检查您正在使用的应用程序中的声音设置。有时,独立应用程序会有自己的控件来选择默认使用哪些音频设备。
通常,您可以通过打开设置菜单并选择音频选项卡来找到这些选项。每个应用程序的位置会有所不同,并且某些应用程序根本没有设置。
如果您找不到任何声音设置页面,在Google上快速搜索“如何在 x 应用程序中更改麦克风”(‘How to change microphone in x application’)将返回一些有用的结果。
进行更改后,重新启动应用程序并测试您的麦克风现在是否可以正常工作。
检查应用程序权限
在Windows 10中,现在可以拒绝或允许应用程序访问某些权限。其中一项权限控制应用程序是否可以访问您的麦克风。
如果您不允许应用使用麦克风权限,即使您已将其设置为默认录音设备,该应用也无法使用您的麦克风。
要访问应用程序权限,请按照以下步骤操作:
- 打开开始菜单
- 键入麦克风隐私设置(microphone privacy settings)
进入麦克风隐私窗口后,滚动浏览应用程序并找到您正在使用的应用程序。单击On/Off toggle button,使其显示为“开(On)”。此外,请确保允许应用程序访问您的麦克风(Allow apps to access your microphone )也切换到On。
请注意,此处只会显示基于Microsoft的应用程序。(Microsoft)如果您使用的是Microsoft Teams或Skype等应用程序,此步骤可以修复您的麦克风。
结论
我们在Windows 10(Windows 10)上修复损坏的麦克风的故障排除指南到此结束。对我们的指南有任何疑问或仍然找不到解决方案?将您的具体问题通过电子邮件(Email)发送给我,我会尽力提供帮助。享受!
How to Fix a Microphone Not Working on Windows 10
If your microphone isn’t working on Windowѕ 10, you’ll need to go through the troυbleѕhooting steps bеlow to fix it. There cоυld be a number of reasons why your microphоne isn’t picking up your νoice and this guide will take you through each potential issue step by step.
Hopefully, by the time you’ve finished our guide, your microphone will be working as normal. Also be sure to read out article on how to enable a microphone in Windows.
Before we get started, it’s important you
locate the original documentation for the microphone or at least find the
microphone model and brand name so that you can research potential fixes if
necessary.
Check Hardware Connections
The first step is to check whether your
microphone has a faulty hardware connection. This is quite simple to do. First,
unplug your microphone and then plug it back in. You should notice a
sound to signify that Windows has recognized new hardware.
Don’t have any sound prompts? Open the Start Menu and search for ‘Device Manager’. Click on the first option that appears.
Next, click to expand the Audio inputs and outputs section from within Device Manager. When your microphone is plugged in, it should appear here.
If you cannot see your microphone here, unplug it and plug it back in again.
Still doesn’t appear? Unplug it and then plug it into a different USB port. If it still doesn’t appear in the Device Manager, you should try a different cable if possible. Also, try plugging it into a different Windows computer just in case something is corrupt on your current machine.
If that isn’t possible, or a different cable doesn’t help, it could be a problem with your microphone and you’ll need to send the microphone back for repair, a refund, or purchase a new one.
Check if Drivers are Necessary
If you can see your microphone here, right click it and then click Properties. Next, click on the Driver tab. From here, click Update Driver. After that, click Search automatically for updated driver software.
If nothing is found, you should do a Google search for your microphone. Search to see whether the microphone manufacturer has any drivers available on their website.
The majority of microphones are now plug and play and driver installs are mostly a thing of the past with Windows 10, but in rare cases an official driver download may be needed.
After following these steps, revisit the
application you were trying to use the microphone in and test to see if it now
works. Still no luck? Move on to the next step below.
Check Sound Preferences in Windows
Windows has its own default audio devices that may need to be adjusted before you are able to use your microphone. To adjust your sound preferences on Windows, open the Start Menu and type Audio. After this, click on Manage audio devices.
Once on the audio devices window, click on the Recording tab. In here, find the microphone you’d like to use, then right click it. First, ensure that it says Disable as an option. If not, click to Enable it.
If you don’t see your microphone here, you could also click Show Disabled Devices to make sure it hasn’t been hidden from sight. Once again, you must right click the microphone and choose enable if it does appear as an enabled device.
If given the option, you should also click to ‘Set as default device after right clicking the microphone. If it is already the default, you’ll see a green tick and the Default Device line.
Does your microphone still not work? Move on
to the next step below.
Disable Hands-Free on Bluetooth Devices
If you are using a Bluetooth device but you’d
like to use a standalone microphone, you must make sure hands-free mode has
been disabled. You can do this by following the steps below.
- Open the Start Menu
- Search Manage Audio Devices
Next, on both the Playback and Recording tabs, right click any hands-free Bluetooth devices and click the Disable option.
After following these steps, try your
microphone in any selected application. If it still doesn’t work, there are two
more steps to try.
Check Sound Settings in Voice Communication Apps
We would suggest you to check the sound
settings in the app you are using. Sometimes, standalone apps will have their
own controls for choosing which audio devices are used as default.
Typically, you can find these options by opening the settings menu and choosing the audio tab. The location will differ between each application, and some apps won’t have the setting at all.
If you cannot find any sound settings page, a quick Google search for ‘How to change microphone in x application’ will bring back some useful results.
Once you’ve made the change, restart the
application and test to see if your microphone now works.
Check App Permissions
In Windows 10, it is now possible to deny or allow apps from having access to certain permissions. One of these permissions controls whether an app can access your microphone.
If you do not allow an app to use the microphone permission, the app cannot use your microphone, even if you’ve set it as your default recording device.
To access app permissions, follow the steps
below:
- Open the Start Menu
- Type microphone privacy settings
Once in the microphone privacy window, scroll through the apps and find the app you are using. Click the On/Off toggle button so that it displays as ‘On’. Also, make sure that Allow apps to access your microphone is also switched to On.
Note that only Microsoft based apps will
appear here. If you are using apps like Microsoft Teams or Skype, this step
could fix your microphone.
