Sometimes, the internet is the culprit, but that is not always the case, as your PC resources, specifically the audio components and drivers, play a crucial role in the proper execution of a meeting. If you are having Skype call quality issues, be it in transmitting your voice to others or hearing what they say, chances are that the audio drivers on your PC are not up to the mark.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sure, there are other reasons behind poor Skype call reception, such as &#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Outdated Version of the Skype Application.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Faulty Microphone or Headphones.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Outdated Audio Drivers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Misconfigured Audio Settings.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And faulty Internet Connection.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The list of issues hampering Skype call quality goes far beyond internet issues. Most users ignore other factors, which is why they cannot fix Skype call quality issues on their PCs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have also tried to eliminate the issues but failed, it is probably because you are not using the correct fixes. In this post, you will find 5 ways to troubleshoot issues with Skype microphone not working and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ways to Fix Skype Call Quality Issues &#8211; Microphone Not Working &amp; More!<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The biggest issue mentioned above is more than just the internet but audio services on a device. Several types of errors may be bothering your experience, with the Skype microphone not working at the top of the list.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, how do you fix Skype call quality issues? Here are some fixes that might help you out!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix #1 &#8211; Check App Version &amp; Compatibility<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having the latest version of Skype is necessary to enjoy the best compatibility. Just like any other program, Skype also has bugs. However, as the user notices or reports, developers resolve them and keep updating the build. If, by chance, you are using an older version of the application, issues such as the mic not working or practically anything that may bother the call quality may appear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hence, try to look for the latest update. Check the Microsoft Store for the latest updates and install them immediately.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix #2 &#8211; Review Skype Audio Configuration<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next thing you can do is check the audio configuration of Skype. To do so, simply follow the given steps &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1 &#8211; Open Skype on your PC. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2 &#8211; Click the three-dot button next to your Profile name and open Settings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19107\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Skype-three-dot-button.png\" alt=\"Skype-three-dot button\" width=\"364\" height=\"181\" sizes=\"(max-width: 364px) 100vw, 364px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3 &#8211; From Settings, navigate to the Audio &amp; Video tab using the left pane.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19108\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Skype-Setting.png\" alt=\"Skype Setting\" width=\"303\" height=\"498\" sizes=\"(max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 4 &#8211; Scroll down in the settings to find the audio configuration.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 5 &#8211; Check if the Microphone is listening by identifying the moving bars under the Microphone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19110\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/audio-configuration.png\" alt=\"audio configuration\" width=\"846\" height=\"420\" sizes=\"(max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 6 &#8211; Click on the Default device drop-down to change your microphone in use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19111\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Default-device-drop-down.png\" alt=\"Default device drop-down\" width=\"279\" height=\"99\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 7 &#8211; If you have issues with the output of your Skype calls, you can also check the speakers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have set the configuration to the optimal, you can make a test call from the same screen. Simply scroll down and find the option.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix #3 &#8211; Make Sure Your Microphone is Accessible<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another crucial setting to check and ensure that your system allows Skype to access the microphone accessibility. That is because if the device is inaccessible, the call quality will automatically decline, causing uninvited trouble during an important conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1 &#8211; Press Win+I to open System Settings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15453\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/05\/open-system-setting.jpg\" alt=\"open system setting\" width=\"477\" height=\"654\" sizes=\"(max-width: 477px) 100vw, 477px\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2 &#8211; From the left pane, navigate to Privacy &amp; Security options.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19112\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/App-Permissions-Section.png\" alt=\"App Permissions Section\" width=\"1344\" height=\"765\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1344px) 100vw, 1344px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3 &#8211; Scroll down to the App Permissions Section and open Microphone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19114\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Microphone-Option-Privacy-and-Security.png\" alt=\"Microphone Option - Privacy and Security\" width=\"1338\" height=\"667\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1338px) 100vw, 1338px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 4 &#8211; Make sure that Skype has access to the opened list of apps.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 5 &#8211; If the toggle for Skype is off, turn it on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Repeat similar steps to ensure proper video during the calls. The call quality of Skype depends mainly on these two components. Hence, it is advised that the permissions for these are set properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix #4 &#8211; Update PC\u2019s Audio Drivers<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the permissions are set and the devices are accessible, but the issue persists, chances are that your Audio drivers are not working properly, If you are experiencing unnecessary disturbances while on a call, try updating your device drivers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to do so? If you have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/identify-if-your-pc-drivers-need-updates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">identified the exact driver causing the issue<\/a>, you can navigate to the Device Manager and update the driver by checking for updates. However, things may get tricky if you do not know which driver is outdated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help you out, we have an extraordinary software called Advanced Driver Updater. It is a one-of-a-kind tool that allows you to scan your PC for outdated drivers and update them from the same interface.

Download the app today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix #5 &#8211; Hardware Fault<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, ensure that the hardware involved in the calls, i.e., the microphone or the camera being used, is working properly, The Skype call quality can take a huge hit if either of these needs to be better. If you have tried all the fixes but cannot reach the expected quality, we recommend you ask a hardware specialist for assistance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have tried all these fixes, your Skype call quality can be easily improved. Needless to say, addressing and resolving the Skype microphone not working issue can help a lot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That would be all for this post.
