Windows 10 won't detect microphone in a party.

Update: It was a forced update from Windows 10 that broke my audio settings for Xbox parties. The second update from August 12, 2020 for Windows 10. I uninstalled it, and the Xbox app is working perfectly again. This is why forced updates were the worst
decision to possibly make for an OS. There is no security excuse to be made as systems are still as vulnerable as ever. Good job Microsoft. The best solution I recommend is finding out how to disable the mandatory updates to avoid little things being broken
here and there. Good day to you all.

If your microphone isn't detected after updating Windows 10, you may need to give your apps permission to use it. To let apps access the microphone, select Start ,then select Settings > Privacy > Microphone . Select Change, then turn on Allow apps to access your microphone!

Hello AmyID,

What kind of headphones is your son using? These are connected to the gamepad/controller or to the USB on the Xbox One?

Also, if you start a party chat on the console, does it detect a Microphone or you see on the screen something like "No microphone was detected on these users"? For checking this :

- Power on the XBOX

- Press XBOX Button on the gamepad

- Press left two times

- Start group

And you should see that message in there in case that it doesn't detect a microphone.

That generic support doesn't really apply here. The problem is with a PC microphone, not an Xbox One microphone. The Xbox App on PC detects the mic and it works if I start a party via the app, but it doesn't work in any capacity on the Xbox One for parties
or game chat.
