Hi there,

I have seen so many Razer Kraken mic issue forums and have done this so far in regards to troubleshooting.
Uninstalled and updated recording Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma drivers.
Set Headset mic to default device
There be no EQ display in Sound>Recording, argh.
When I click listen to device, I can hear myself through the mic?!
When I try to set up mic, windows errrrrors out on me.

I am really at a lost. I have tried unplugging and plugging back in. Multiple restarts etc..

Again the weirdest part is being able to double click on headset mic in recording>Listen>Select Listen to this device and being able to pick up audio via the mic.

Any trouble shooting would be appreciated!
Thank you!

It looks like Micro$oft changed the permission definition for certain elements. The microphone is one of those elements, so try the following:

Go to Settings > Privacy > Microphone.
Once there allow apps to access your microphone.

It should solve the issue.
