I don't get it ... Microphone not found

[larsburkhardt]

I don't get Whispering to work ... the extension fails with an error message, the Desktop app doesn't find my microphone (Windows)
Whenever I want to search for mic, I get the message that I shallow the access in the browser settings - in Chrome (Standard browser) I don't get any popup or anything else - the whispering site whispering.bradenwong.com has access.
I used Whispering a lot in the past (Chrome extension), but there were too many bugs and errors. Now that I want to try again, I get again disappointed since I don't hav any clue what to do to get it working.
Any help/suggestions? Thx

Hey @larsburkhardt thanks for reaching out! We’re no longer supporting the old Whispering extension/domain. Please use the new site: https://whispering.epicenter.so.

If you’re using the Desktop app, download the latest version here: v7.3.1 release. We’re actively improving it — join our Discord for updates: https://discord.gg/YWa5YVUSxa.

@larsburkhardt Yeah there is an accessibility option you need to give access to to whispering which will allow microphone accessible to the app.

I needed ChatGPT for an answer ;) - under Windows it's not in the accessibility settings, it is under Settings -> Data protection and security -> Microphone Got it manged to work on my work laptop, will test it at home on my Desktop PC
