Speech Diagnostric Calibrate Error 0x80004003

Thank you very much for your feedback, I would like to confirm which software you use for voice chat?

Your problem may not be caused by this update, I will try to reproduce the problem using the same software.

Okay, I have uninstalled update KB5014699, restarted, and hidden it, the troubleshooter no longer gives me the error, so that's good, unfortunately my device is still unable to hear any audio I try to record or hear me when i speak in voice chats.

Hi RohamPatek,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

As with other customer issues I have posted, the update that may be problematic in Windows 10 is KB5014699. You can uninstall it in Windows 10 by following the steps below.

1. Click on the start menu on the taskbar to enter settings
2. Open Update and Security, click Update History
3. Then click Uninstall Update, it will go to the "Uninstall Update" window, please find KB5014699 and click "Uninstall"
4. Restart the computer to confirm if the microphone problem is solve

Which browser do you use to open the "Hide Windows Update" tool? Here I test using Microsoft Edge (102.0.1245.44) can open and download, if you use other browsers open can not download, I suggest trying Microsoft Edge.

 Let us know if it works

I am having the same issue on windows 10, and the closest similar update file I could find was KB5014699 (which is a security update according to the uninstall an update window), could this be the same file that is causing the problem, but for windows 10 instead? Also, the link you included just opens and closes a tab, I imagine it is supposed to download something, but it is not and I'm not sure why.

Same issue. Happened after I upgraded my windows 11 home to pro. I must have working speech recognition. Help
