Discord

Discord mic not working

Fix a Discord mic nobody can hear: the built-in Mic Test plays your voice back, so it says at once whether Discord is receiving audio. Covers input device selection, OS permissions, sensitivity gating and server-side mutes.

Minecraft

Minecraft multiplayer not working

Fix Minecraft multiplayer that won’t connect: child accounts have it blocked by default, and the switch lives in Xbox privacy settings — which apply even if you never play on an Xbox. Covers cross-play, friends, editions and servers.

Roblox

Roblox not launching

Fix Roblox that won’t start or hangs on the loading screen: launching a second way splits a browser fault from a deeper one. Covers ad-blockers, corrupted cache, and the UDP port range Roblox needs open.
