This article will look at how to reset the windows microphone permissions for the Agilico Connect desktop app where these have previously been denied
Overview
The Windows desktop app is a convenient way to use the web app in a Windows environment. It uses an embedded browser to provide most functionality. It is possible to accidentally deny permission to the microphone as part of the setup process. Due to the fact that the browser is embedded there is no access to the settings to turn the microphone back on or clear the settings cache of the browser.
Solution
If this happens the following steps can be used to manually clear the settings.
Warning
These steps involve accessing sensitive areas of the Windows environment and are meant to be followed only by qualified IT personnel. Please consult with your IT support team before attempting these steps.

The app will prompt you to authenticate and will request microphone access as if it were being used for the first time. If prompted, please allow access to the microphone.
