Question

Premiere Elements 2018 stops working on Windows if Microphone access is switched off for apps

Premiere Elements stopped working when I switched off the "Allow apps to access your microphone" setting. It started working again once I switched this back on.

 

While the "Allow apps to access your microphone" setting was "off", PRE will load fine, will load projects OK, but will not allow you to play the project, or move along the timeline. It basically sits there frozen unable to do anything. Even a new project will not load new media.

I'm assuming you're using a USB microphone on Windows 10.

 

Where are you finding the option to "allow apps to access your microphone"? You should not have to click this option to record narration in Premiere Elements.
