The microphone is also useful when talking to a client or customer via video chat. If you accidentally leave the microphone on, it can pick up and record unwanted sounds on the computer. If you don't want the microphone to record audio, mute it by turning the volume all the way down. You can also disable the microphone by switching audio inputs.
