Enable the microphone explicitly. Push-to-talk needs your selected key held down; open mic stays on until you mute it. In Settings → Voice & connection, choose whether a missing selected device pauses audio or falls back to the system default.
Effects run locally. To use them in a game’s own voice chat, optionally install VB-CABLE from Settings, select CABLE Input as the virtual output, and choose CABLE Output as the game microphone. Enable game routing only when needed. Use headphones and avoid routing the virtual input back into itself.
Choose Share screen and explicitly select a source. Teammates press Watch. Voice first is the lightest profile; Motion suits gameplay, Text suits documents. No-viewer transmission and hidden viewing pause automatically. System audio and camera are not captured.
Accounts are optional for guest rooms; team channels require a team account. Owners/admins create permanent channels and set joining/speaking roles. AFK is listen only. Profile save/apply is explicit; keep your recovery code safe.
Updates wait during a call. Apply a verified download with Restart and update. Windows publisher signing remains separate. For a problem, review the optional local performance/crash report before attaching it to an issue. Reports are not uploaded automatically.
