One of the hardware elements most used, especially in portable equipment, is the integrated microphone or an external one that we integrate; since this is useful because through it we can talk directly with friends, family or colleagues as well as make presentations or make use of social networks , which each day demand more of this type of interactions..

When using the microphone in Windows 10 can be a series of circumstances that prevent optimal audio quality through it, whether external factors such as noise, wind, music, etc., as internal factors such as poor configuration of it , and by using poor audio quality we may not be clear about what we want to say. One of the most frequent errors is the echo in the microphone, which will cause everything we say to be repeated again and again causing discomfort in the target audience.

It is for this reason that today TechnoWikis will explain in detail how we can correct this echo error in the Windows 10 microphone..
