I can hear through my headphones but the microphone isn't working anymore.

Question

Hello, lately I've been having a little problem, the microphone on my headphones is no longer working, so my PC forces me to use its internal microphone. I've tried all the techniques I could find so far. (Uninstalling Realtek drivers, enabling the microphone for applications, automatic dialog boxes, showing disabled audio devices, etc.). I should mention that the jack is fine since it used to work and that my jack input is for headset-mics. I tried with other headphones, but the result remained the same... Regarding the dialog box, when I click on headset mic or another option, Windows 10 doesn't detect anything. When I go to "sound," I don't see any headset mic displayed on the screen. Thank you in advance.

Hello,  Before getting sick, one is in good health... "everything is fine since it was working" and well no, your reasoning is not correct now that you are out of order, it’s no longer true.  Not knowing what type of equipment it is, I assume that a wire from the microphone is cut in the assembly... or some dirt is lodged in the 3.5 Jack  Does it work on another PC..? or a smartphone..??

So the issue is with the PC you mentioned...  -- It could be the damaged jack, with dirt inside...? A tab has been forced with a foreign object in the hole...? The pins of the jack are unsoldered on the motherboard...? From repeatedly inserting and removing this jack...  -- Or the internal amplifier of the PC is burnt out because it received signals that were too high...  -- Or this microphone is not recognized by Windows...?  You should note that you are quite stingy with technical information about your equipment, which doesn’t help the situation  You can run your PC on a live CD with Linux, for example, and you will see if you still have the same issue...
