A quick question

[AceHand]

Not exactly sure if this is the right place to post this in, but here goes.

As of late, I've noticed a notification in my taskbar called "d3dproxywindow is using microphone". This only comes up when I play R6S though, and I would like to know what it is and why it comes up.

Thank you in advance.

Hey,

I don't believe this is anything to worry about or Rainbow Six Siege specific. However I can't find much information on this either i'm afraid, especially in regards to it being linked to a microphone.

Saw the same, was curious, clicked the microphone, and windows brought up the mic menu that tells you specifically which applications are using your mic right this moment (just scroll down toward the bottom, past the W10-specific apps). For me, it was GTAV. So it looks like it's not R6S-specific, and it might just be how games' requests to use your microphone are seen by the OS - through some Direct3D module.

Thanks for providing us with those details, Whomping Walrus
