Once the Recording devices window opens, right click in a blank area where there is no writing to open another sub menu.

Put checkmarks to enable "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices"

Back in the Recording devices window, right click on the stereo mix option and enable the option.


Interesting.....Why on earth would this be disabled by default (and so unintuitive to activate)?

This worked exactly as you described, Jim. Thanks! smile
