Mic stopped working after windows 10 update. I can't raise the db levels and it does not record any sounds. Its like its muted all the time, but i cant unmute it.
Its an HyperX Cloud II if that matters.

Thanks.

Have you tried to plugin your mic into another Windows 10 PC? To see if the problem also occurs.
