  • Do you have a USB microphone that won’t operate with Windows 10? It’s possible that incompatible drivers are to blame.
  • Some people suggested deleting your USB controller driver to resolve the problem immediately.
  • A USB microphone that is not working can also be resolved by using the hardware and sound troubleshooter.
  • If you’re still having problems, try reinstalling your drivers with third-party software.

On Windows 10, how can I fix my USB microphone?

1. Remove the USB controller drivers from your computer

  1. Remove the USB microphone from the Windows 10 computer.
  2. Reconnect the USB microphone to the device.
  3. To open Run, press Windows key + R.
  4. In the Run window, type devmgmt.msc and hit Enter.
  5. Double-click Universal serial bus controllers in the Device Manager window’s left panel.
  6. Look for the name of the USB microphone you’re using there.
  7. Uninstall the USB microphone by right-clicking it in the device management and selecting Uninstall device.
  8. You must unplug your USB microphone when the uninstall process is completed.
  9. Restart your Windows 10 computer.
  10. Plug your microphone back in when you get to the Windows start screen.
  11. The drivers will be downloaded and installed automatically.
  12. Check to verify if your USB microphone is now operational.

2. Launch the Troubleshooter for Hardware and Sound

  1. Type Troubleshooting into the Windows search bar.
  2. After the search is complete, left-click or tap on the Troubleshooting icon.
  3. Left-click on Hardware and Sound in the Troubleshooting window.
  4. To start the troubleshooter, left-click on the Sound function and follow the on-screen instructions.
  5. After you’ve completed the troubleshooting process, reboot your Windows 10 device and test your USB microphone again.

3. Install the latest microphone drivers

Also, take a look at the USB microphone drivers you’ve loaded. If they aren’t compatible with Windows 10, you’ll have to hunt for the appropriate drivers on the manufacturer’s website.

There is, however, a more straightforward method. Using a third-party program, you may update your drivers automatically. This will save you time and effort by manually eliminating the need to search for and download the most recent driver versions.
