Speech Diagnostric Calibrate Error 0x80004003

Update:

I realized that I have not installed the optional 21H2 update. After removing the security blockage and installing the security patch and then 21H2 Voice recognition worked for me for an older version of a program, but not for the latest test version. I can setup speech recognition in the control panel without getting any errors and fully working for Cortana and the Control Panel Speech Recognition, but going to Settings-> Time&language->Speech I am getting the error message 80004003 when I click "Get Started" under the Microphone heading. It looks like something got fixed with 21H2, but something is still left.

So the official sollution is just to uninstall the latest Security Update?
This honestly feels a bit wrong

Thanks, it fixed my problem on Windows 10 and speech recognition works again.

It was the security update KB5014699

Hi john3825a，

I'm sorry that this question has caused you a lot of trouble.

I received that other users have encountered similar problems as you, and gave a feasible solution.

Microphone calibration through troubleshoot wizard bringing up error - Microsoft Community

My Windows 10 pro pc doesn't recognize the headset mic - Microsoft Community

According to my tests, this issue is related to KB5014697 on Windows 11. I recommend uninstalling this update and restarting the computer to see if that resolves the issue:

1. Select Start > Settings > Windows Update > Update history > Uninstall updates.
2. Then click Uninstall Update, it will go to the "Uninstall Update" window, please find KB5014697 and click "Uninstall"
3. Restart the computer to confirm if the microphone problem is solved

There is no KB5014697 entry, but there is "Servicing Stack 10.0.22000.702" which is the right KB. But what is strange that when I click on the entry, there is no Uninstall option. There is an Uninstall option for KB5013889 (installed just after KB5014697). Same "missing uninstall option" issue for "Servicing Stack 10.0.22000.761" The mic does work, but not the SpeechDiagnosticCalibrate... [LG Gram 16", i7-1165G7, 16GB, Win11 21H2, build 22000.778]

Also, following the other thread link at the top of this thread, I saw the instructions how to use Windows Terminal. I get the same issue with the system not recognizing the KB5014697 update.

Having same issue after the update. i even tried uninstalling the above update still microphone speechdiagnoistic caliberate issue not solved.
