Have you ever suddenly found that your rig will not transmit in any of the
digital modes, and suspect that your computer's audio ports have been reset
by an automatic Windows 10 update? (If you say "no" you better be smiling
...).
A few years back, Microsoft added a security feature to disallow apps from
accessing your system's microphone without permission (so those sneaky
hackers could not listen in on you). Good to be safe ... but the change
created this problem in the process.
In Windows 10 -> Settings -> Privacy -> Microphone make sure that both
"Allow apps to access your microphone" and "Allow desktop apps to access
your microphone" are turned ON.
It seems that some updates reset this to the default "Off" setting. Now you
know.
