Windows 10: Missing enhancements tab for both speaker and microphone settings. Also don’t see...

I have the hyperx quadcast mic and normally plug my headphones directly into the mic. When I change devices sometimes I can hear what my mic is picking up in my headphones and I go to speaker properties and turn off microphone volume to fix this. I just got a new pc that is windows 11 and tried turning off the mic volume but it isn’t an option instead it says master volume. If I mute it I don’t hear anything. I also noticed there aren’t enhancement option for both speaker and microphone.I have looked for solutions but nothing has worked so far. I have updated drivers, uninstalled drivers and r

Enhancement tab missing from windows 10

On windows 10 the enhancement tab is missing from the speakers and the microphone tab in the sound options.

 

no enhancements tab on my speaker properties HP windows 10

Hi Manuelde,

Outdated audio driver is one of the usual caused why the enhancements tab is not appearing on the speakers properties. There are also audio drivers that don't have an enhancement tab.

To isolate the root cause of the issue, we need additional information:

• Which audio driver are you using?
• Were you able to use the enhancement tab before?
• Did you make any changes prior to the issue?

As an initial troubleshooting, we suggest uninstalling the driver using the steps below:

• Open Device Manager.
• Right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device, and select
  Uninstall.
• Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.

 

Enhancements tab in microphone properties missing

Hi Maik32,

I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Did you previously have an Enhancements tab for your Microphone?

Any enhancements are provided by the audio devices divers, they are not a standard part of Windows and will only show an Enhancements Tab if your audio and microphone support it.
