My question is a bit of an odd one, mostly because I never would've imagined this is even possible, but moving on:

I have a microphone, Razer Seiren X, which has worked fine until now (isn't such a good mic, but it works).


Yesterday it was just fine but today it doesn't work at all.

If I go to Sound Settings, and start tapping on the microphone, the volume bar doesn't show any input from the mic, same when I go to my chatting app (Discord) and try to use it there.


I have the latest available windows version (KB4532695 Version 1909), my mic is a USB mic.

I've also tried using another microphone, my headset one and the same problem seems to appear.
