Microphone. Note there is a “everything” switch at the top, hidden under a
button; and an “everything for this user” switch just below that.

For privacy purposes, anything on the Recording tab is called a “microphone”.

UWP apps which try to use the microphone show up on the list of apps.

Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Audio Input Mic / Line Blockings

Just did a Preview Win 10 64 bit update 17741.rs5_release / 180814-1430 and
have seen the following:

  1.  Win 10 blocks all Microphone inputs after first login

  2.  Do also block all Line input(s) using WASAPI Exclusive, what IMHO are not
microphones

[cid:image001.png@01D437F4.E8AC4960]

  3.  App & mic ON, also the line input gets for my application

Question: Is this a behavior by design? And how can I participate on the
Application list, means register my app within for mic allowing

Best Regards
