I've already highlighted some major ones like Snipping Tool and Paint, and this time, I want to talk about Sound Recorder. Actually, this app had a different name back on Windows 10, where it was ...

Although the Sound Recorder app is similar to the Voice Recorder app on Windows 10, one of the biggest differences is that the app for Windows 11 doesn't include the audio trimming feature.

This audio recorder is simple to use and is great for recording both voice and music. It has built-in condenser microphones that offer different pickup patterns for directional or ambient recording.

You can use the Settings app of Windows 11/10 and record or play audio at a normal level for a microphone test and finally play the recorded sample to check if the microphone is working fine or not.
