No Input Device Found

Question

I am unable to use my voice input functions in all of the apps. I tried to enable the input device in microphone settings, but it does not show any devices. Isn't the system supposed to have a mic built in, and shouldn't it be shown under the input devices?

Answer 1

If your system is not detecting any input devices for voice input, there are a few things you can check:

1. Check Microphone Settings: Ensure that your microphone is enabled in the settings. Go to Settings > Privacy & security > Microphone and make sure that microphone access is turned on for the apps you want to use.
2. Check Device Connections: If your device does not have a built-in microphone, you may need to connect an external microphone or a headset with a microphone. Ensure that it is properly connected.
3. Audio Device Settings: If you are using a headset, make sure that the audio input is set to the correct device. You can check this in Settings > System > Sound and ensure that the correct input device is selected.
4. Troubleshoot Microphone: You can also run the Microphone Setup troubleshooter. Go to Settings > Time & Language > Speech, and select "Get Started" in the "Microphone" section to ensure that your microphone is configured correctly.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, there may be a hardware problem with the microphone itself or the system's audio drivers may need to be updated.

Hi ,

If it is a laptop or desktop, if possible, could you provide the laptop model or your desktop configuration?
