如何在Windows 10中访问(Windows 10)录音机应用程序(Voice Recorder app)
访问录音机(Voice Recorder)的一种方法是开始在Windows 10 搜索框中(search box)输入应用程序的名称，然后单击或点击相关结果。
另一种方法是在“开始”菜单(Start Menu)的应用程序列表中找到该应用程序，然后单击或点击它。
录音机(Voice Recorder)应用程序打开，如果这是您第一次访问它并且没有保存以前的录音，它会请求访问您的麦克风的权限。显然，应该给予这个权限，否则应用程序将无法运行。

单击或点击“录制”(Record)按钮或使用键盘快捷键(keyboard shortcut) Ctrl + R开始录制。
该应用程序开始录制，显示自录音(audio recording)开始以来经过的时间。
单击或点击暂停(Pause)按钮可随时暂停录制，而不结束当前录制会话(recording session)。
再次单击或点击暂停(Pause) 按钮(button one)会导致应用程序恢复录制。完成录制后，单击或点击窗口中心的停止录制(Stop recording)按钮，或按(press one)键盘上的以下键之一：Esc、Enter、空格键(Spacebar)或BackSpace。

标记显示在窗口底部的标志图标旁边(flag icon)，它显示自录制开始以来经过的时间。
您可以在录制时添加任意数量的标记。您还可以在播放以前保存的录音时添加标记，方法是按“添加标记”("Add a marker")按钮。
当您播放录音时，该录音的所有标记（无论是您在制作录音时添加的还是在收听时添加的）都显示在窗口的右上方，位于录音的名称和详细信息(name and details)下方，并在播放栏中(play bar)。单击或点击标记可让您快速跳转到带下划线的时刻。
要删除标记，请右键单击或按住它，然后单击或点击唯一可用的选项：“删除此标记("Delete this marker)”。

在出现的弹出窗口(pop-up window)中，为您的录音插入所需的名称，然后单击或点击(click or tap) 重命名(Rename)。
您还可以通过右键单击或按住(right-clicking or pressing-and-holding)录音，然后从其上下文菜单中选择重命名来重命名录音。(Rename)

当您打开录音机(Voice Recorder)应用程序时，您可能会发现“录音”(Record)按钮不可用，并且窗口底部显示“您需要在设置中设置麦克风”消息。("You need to set up a microphone in Settings")发生这种情况是因为您没有授予此应用访问您的麦克风的权限。
要解决此问题，请单击或点击查看更多(See more)菜单将其打开，然后点击麦克风设置(Microphone settings)。
“麦克风(Microphone)”窗口在“设置”(Settings)应用中打开。
您需要启用的第一件事是“允许访问此设备上的麦克风”("Allow access to the microphone on this device")选项。如果显示的状态(status displayed)为“此设备的麦克风访问已关闭("Microphone access for this device is off)”，请按此选项底部的更改(Change)按钮，然后打开开关(On)。
下方的选项“允许应用程序访问您的麦克风("Allow apps to access your microphone)”也需要启用，因此请将其打开(On)。
向下滚动(Scroll)以查找包含应用程序以及是否允许它们访问您的麦克风的列表。在列表中找到Voice Recorder应用程序，并通过打开(Voice Recorder)开关(On)确保允许它访问麦克风。
这应该可以解决任何问题，并且Voice Recorder应用程序应该可以按预期工作。

How to use the Voice Recorder in Windows 10 to record audio
Thе free Voice Recorder app bundled with Windows 10 is great in its simplicity, allowing you to make quick and clear audio recordings, without the use of a professional program or recording device. Whether you need to practice the acceptance speech for winning your Hearthstone Tournament, decide to interview your favorite pet or want to figure out if you are good enough for American Idol, the Voice Recorder is your go-to app in Windows 10. Let's see what it can do:
NOTE: The screenshots and the instructions in this guide apply to Windows 10 May 2019 update or newer. If you do not know what version of Windows 10 you have, read: How to check the Windows 10 version, OS build, edition, or type.
How to access the Voice Recorder app in Windows 10
One way to access the Voice Recorder is to start typing the app's name in the Windows 10 search box and then click or tap the relevant result.
Another way is by finding the app in the list of apps from the Start Menu and then clicking or tapping on it.
The Voice Recorder app opens, and, if this is the first time you access it and there are no previous recordings saved, it asks for permission to access your microphone. Obviously, this permission should be given, otherwise the app does not work.
How to create a recording using Voice Recorder in Windows 10
Click or tap the Record button or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + R to start your recording.
The app starts recording, displaying the time elapsed since the audio recording started.
Click or tap the Pause button to pause the recording at any time, without ending the current recording session.
Clicking or tapping the Pause button one more time causes the app to resume the recording. When you are done recording, click or tap the Stop recording button in the center of the window, or press one of the following keys on your keyboard: Esc, Enter, Spacebar, or BackSpace.
The recording session ends and, especially when it comes to long audio recordings, you are notified that it is being saved. Keep in mind that the limit for a recording is 2hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds, according to our tests.
Your audio recording is saved under the default name Recording. The date and time when the recording was saved are displayed underneath, followed by the duration of the recording. Once you have at least one recording saved in Voice Recorder, the Record button is displayed in the lower-left corner of the window, and you can press it at any time to start a new recording.
If the Voice Recorder is closed before saving the recording, you get a notification, letting you know that your recording is paused.
This is not entirely accurate, as your recording is actually saved under the name Recording (autosaved) and it can not be resumed.
In this specific case, any markers added to the recording are gone, same as the option to add a marker.
How to find and play your audio recording in Voice Recorder
All your recording sessions are saved in a list in the Voice Recorder app under the default name Recording, the most recent being at the top. To make things less confusing for users, subsequent recordings display a number in brackets, and the list is divided by days.
If you use the Voice Recorder a lot, scrolling through the list of recordings to find the one you want can become tiresome. Clicking or tapping the day subcategory displayed in the Voice Recorder takes you to a new window, where you can choose any of the days when recordings have been made.
Click or tap the day that interests you from the list.
This returns you to the initial list, where the recordings from that day come into focus.
To listen to a recording, select it from the list and either click or tap on it again or press Play.
Press the Pause button to pause the recording at any time. To toggle between playing and pausing a recording, you can also click or tap on its name in the list, or use the Enter or Spacebar keys on your keyboard.
How to use markers inside a recording in Voice Recorder
Markers let you "bookmark" important parts of a recording, making them easy to identify and access afterwards. You can use them to mark portions of a recording or to highlight key moments, and they come in handy, especially when it comes to long recording sessions. A marker does not alter or interrupt the recording in any way. While you are recording, the flag icon displayed next to the Pause button allows you to "Add a marker" inside your recording. To add a marker, click or tap the "Add a marker" button or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + M.
The marker is shown at the bottom of the window, next to a flag icon, and it displays the time elapsed since the recording started.
You can add as many markers as you want while recording. You can also add markers while playing a previously saved recording, by pressing the "Add a marker" button.
When you play a recording, all the markers for that recording (whether you added them doing the making of the recording or while listening to it) are displayed both in the upper right portion of the window, under the name and details of the recording, and in the play bar. Clicking or tapping a marker allows you to quickly jump to underlined moments.
To remove a marker, right-click or press-and-hold on it, and then click or tap the only available option: "Delete this marker."
How to trim a recording with Voice Recorder in Windows 10
The Voice Recorder allows you to trim a recording, and only keep the relevant part(s) from it.
To do that, select the Recording from the list and then click or tap the Trim button at the bottom of the window.
This causes two pins to appear on the play bar, named "Start of trimmed section" and "End of trimmed section." Drag them around to select the part of your recording you want to keep.
You can press the Play button at any time while trimming to make sure your selection is accurate. When you have made your decision, click or tap Save at the bottom of the window.
You now have two options: "Update original" or "Save a copy." If you choose to "Update original," the recording is replaced by the new version, while "Save a copy" creates a new recording in the list.
If you change your mind, use the Cancel button (marked with an X) at any point during the trimming process or select another recording from the list to cancel editing the recording.
How to rename a recording in Voice Recorder
Having all the files in Voice Recorder named Recording can be inconvenient, so the option to rename them is a welcome addition. The easiest way to do this is by selecting the recording you want to rename and then clicking or tapping the Rename button at the bottom of the window.
In the pop-up window that appears, insert the desired name for your recording, and click or tap Rename.
You can also rename a recording by right-clicking or pressing-and-holding it and then choosing Rename from its contextual menu.
The pop-up window appears, and you can insert the name of your choice for the recording and click or tap Rename.
Your recording's new name is instantly displayed.
How to share your recordings from Voice Recorder in Windows 10
Once you are happy with your recording, the Voice Recorder gives you the option to share it with others. Select the recording you want to share and click or tap the Share button at the bottom of the window.
Alternatively, you can right-click or press-and-hold the recording in the list and click or tap Share from the contextual menu.
A window pops up, displaying the options available for sharing.
How to delete a recording from Voice Recorder
The obvious way to delete a recording is by selecting it and then clicking or tapping the trash-bin button at the bottom of the window, called Delete, or by pressing the Delete key on your keyboard.
You can also right-click or press-and-hold on any recording, then click or tap Delete.
A pop-up window asks you to confirm the action.
How to open recordings in File Explorer from Voice Recorder
To open a recording from Voice Recorder, right-click or press-and-hold it and then press "Open file location."
You can also click or tap the three dots in the bottom right corner to open the See more menu.
Then click or tap "Open file location" from the See more menu.
The Sound recordings folder opens in File Explorer, and your recording is highlighted within. You can find the Sound recordings folder in Documents. The default location is C:UsersusernameDocumentsSound recordingsRecording.m4a.
How to provide feedback to Microsoft about Voice Recorder
The Feedback Hub is easily accessible from the Voice Recorder app, allowing you to offer feedback to Microsoft. Click or tap the See more menu and then Send feedback.
When the Feedback Hub opens, you can sign in with your Microsoft account and use it to send your opinion to Microsoft.
How to set up a microphone for the Voice Recorder app
When you open the Voice Recorder app, you might find that the Record button is unavailable and the message "You need to set up a microphone in Settings" is displayed at the bottom of the window. This happens because you did not give this app access to your microphone.
To fix this problem, click or tap the See more menu to open it, and then Microphone settings.
The Microphone window opens in the Settings app.
The first thing you need to enable is the "Allow access to the microphone on this device" option. Press the Change button at the bottom of this option if the status displayed is "Microphone access for this device is off," and then turn the switch On.
The option underneath, "Allow apps to access your microphone," also needs to be enabled, so turn it On.
Scroll down to find a list containing apps and whether or not they are allowed to access your microphone. Find the Voice Recorder app in the list and make sure it is allowed to access the microphone, by turning the switch On.
This should resolve any issues, and the Voice Recorder app should work as intended.
