Why you get the microphone privacy warnings?

How to enable Microphone Privacy on Windows 10?
Step 1: Search “microphone privacy settings” in the search bar, find Microphone privacy settings and open it.

If you can’t find the search bar, please right-click on the Windows taskbar, choose “Search” and tick “Show search box”.
