I tried to setup a microphone for my PC. I got an error from settings -> time language -> microphone start, for Speech Diagnostic Calibrate Error.

OS: Windows 11 Pro

Error:

path: C:\Windows\Diagnostics\Index\SpeechDiagnostic.xml,

error code: 0x80004003 E_POINTER invalid pointer,

comment: elevated ( admin privilege )

It does not recognize speech, but it can record from a microphone with "windows voice recorder."

Please tell me how to fix the microphone error.

Thanks.

    Sometimes it is a better idea to use wired devices. If you use other way you depend on updates. I have connected wired devices and solve more stable solution as I thought it is device issue and connection.

    I have had the same problem. I thought it was limited to Skype calls but after carrying out diagnostic tests in Settings and also using Dell troubleshooting I realised it was the laptop microphone (hardware or software) not the Skype app. I followed Microsoft's instructions to find and uninstall the security update that ended in 699 (I think) and it was not listed.

    I have rebooted and run troubleshooters over the past week with no luck.

    After trying everything today, I downloaded and installed KB5015878 (dated July 26th 2022) . After rebooting, the microphone works. Long may it last.

    When I went to uninstall update, the update was not listed in any category, even though it showed that I had received it. I am going to try and install KB5015878 as the other person had my same problem and said that this fixed his issue... I will update...

    Unable to Uninstaller kb5014699. I go to the Uninstaller window, as described, and it does not appear there but shows in history as updated in June.
