Next, click on the Audio option, and you will get two options: Computer Audio and Microphone Audio. By default, Computer Audio is set as capture, and Microphone Audio is set as Don’t Capture. Change the Microphone Audio Settings to Capture; otherwise, only the device voice will be recorded, and your voice will not be recorded.
