When I try to use my MIC for speech to text I continually get this message and the message box "locks up" on screen!

    No idea tbh, it is a glitch I believe because many people are complaining about this same error

    One solution (or I'd say a way to get around) is to create a new user account with admin privileges, over there Win+H windows speech-to-text works.. but personally I feel this solution is not useful at all

    Exactly, I saw this solution online and it is not useful at all! I mean only 1 feature is not working and to fix that we have to create an entirely new account? What about the desktop, chrome, software settings.. not a useful solution at all

    Also after seeing the all the comments from people, I believe this started happening to everyone a week ago (same here). This surely is a glitch from Microsoft.. weird

    Is using Google Chrome the solution? I have a Samsung Book Pro... Is this a Microsoft Edge problem?

    Windows 11: Another user with same problem. It used to work so what did MS change?
