Bluetooth microphone is not working on Windows 11.

I am wondering when/if somebody from Microsoft will respond to this blog?

I have tried everything I can think of wrt windows 11 outside of a complete fresh install (which I am reluctant to do and at best all this would prove is that the issue is with the windows OS/drivers.. which is a huge amount of effort with no definitive RCA ).

Can somebody from Microsoft please help this windows community experiencing these issues.. which seem to be across windows 11 home/pro/ent as well as different laptop providers (Asus/DELL inparticular).

PLEASE HELP.

P.

COME ON MICROSOFT, FIX THIS ? feels ridiculous

This worked for me. Deleted all drivers under Sound, video and game controls.

And this 2 under Other Device. (see picture) Restarted me PC and microphone are working again.

I see, in that case, you may want to try the following steps:

Check if the microphone is enabled in the Bluetooth settings:

1. Press Windows key + I to open the Settings app.
2. Go to "Devices" > "Bluetooth & other devices".
3. Click on your Bluetooth headset and then click on "Device properties".
4. Make sure the "Input" option is turned on.

Also, Check if the microphone is enabled in the privacy settings:

1. Press Windows key + I to open the Settings app.
2. Go to "Privacy" > "Microphone".
3. Make sure the "Allow apps to access your microphone" option is turned on.

I hope this helps :) Let me know the results :)
