so wanted to add a new note. I thought of trying to allow another software handle the sound (Mic and sound). found a free program (SteelSeries) game sounds way better but still noone can hear me. 7.1 surround sound now and I can hear things in the game I never have, but it didnt fix the Mic issue. So im still trying new things. And this shows its not a windows issue or steam issue because its another software driving now.

Some servers are so hard when you cant talk to people with out typing. feelings just dont come acrost the same.

I DOnt think you will find a fix for it. I'm lucky like that.

Any update?

Correct, same with unistalling the game and reinstalling it. what ever change OBS made with the game is a permanant change. MAybe if I scrub the computer of all little bits of DayZ it might help but thats a lot to do.. New computer or fresh windows install game works fine I wa able to talk just fine till i installed OBS. and uninstalling it was the first thing I tried

@twiskid
Sorry I might haver gotten my sections in your 1st message wrong. I am still going to show the info you provided has already been done. and all other microphons are disabled when testing and in use.

The issue is with DayZ not working after OBS install. You can see with the next image it is not part of the active Apps windows sees for Microphone use.

You can see other games and steam are show and active when the Microphone is used. DayZ was on this list untill after OBS was installed. No other gamer or application was effected.

@twiskid "Прокрутите список вниз и убедитесь, что для DayZ доступ разрешен" this part, The game does not show in the setting. Other games that use the mic do and work fine. I have tried many time to gt the game added. including running the mae as admin
