On my Windows 11 laptop, I can no longer use the Window key +H function to bring up Voice Controls. Can anybody help me with that? I am partially visually impaired and I use the Voice Controls all the time by hitting the windoews key + H button at the same time.

    Hi Richard,

    I just used it in Edge and used it

    twice this week in Teams.

    Not sure what's going on, but please

    file the issue in the Feedback Hub. WIN+F

    After an update in windows 11 that's when when the problem started. When using the microphone in Google Chrome web browser it works fine.

    Hi Richard,

    Are you on Windows 10 or 11?

    Did this start after a recent update?

    It's working here for me.
