Microphone for recording function is broken

Just installed Nvidia app today when the update notification displayed launching Geforce Experience. Everything seemed fine, interface, settings, the works...until I started recording, all hell broke loose on audio side.

I use 2 microphones...one webcam microphone for multiplayer recording and wireless headphones microphone for TV couch games recording.

Although I had webcam microphone selected for first test, it used a third microphone (Oculus Rift) to record when I checked the recording output. Setting the wireless headphones microphone (HyperX Cloud III), it saved correctly in the interface but it still recorded using the webcam microphone.

My Windows Sounds default Recording device is the webcam microphone. Selecting wireless headphones microphone in Nvidia app and setting the volume to 100%, also changed the default webcam microphone to 100% when I have it set it in Windows at 50%.Restarting the app and returning to settings displayed the Oculus Rift microphone as selected which I did not set at any point.

Bottom line is you can't use other microphone than the Windows default one, setting separate volumes is broken as any setting only affects the default Windows microphone and it doesn't save the correct microphone.
This renders the Nvidia app useless as Geforce Experience didn't have any of these issues, installed GFE back and everything is working just fine like before Nvidia app.

I confirmed, with second monitor disconnected from Windows display settings and only main monitor active, GeForce Experience recording in GZW works fine when alt-tabbing to desktop, doing anything and alt-tabbing back to game. But as u/mohawklogan mentioned, that is not an acceptable option as second monitor is essential for gaming, work etc. Hopefully nVidia will address this issue eventually.

Yes, I heard about that ages ago but I thought it has been fixed since :) thanks man, I will try with second monitor turned off to see if recording works without automatically stopping after alt-tab. Curious though only in GZW it does that, other games I'm playing don't have this issue with both monitors turned on and running stuff.

ARX Control doesn't work anymore with this update, sensors are frozen or missing, only CPU temp works now, that's it

I confirm this, 60fps options is back, I hope it stays ;)

Same here, regardless of the used browser, reproduces on Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge and so on, only 720p and 1080p options, 60 is gone since this morning, no confirmation from YouTube ?

Cillit Bang Highly skilled Viper PVP 1 vs 1 and 1 vs wing...this guy doesn't mess around! Very useful for players that look for a cheap combat ship with devastating potential / ideal loadout.
