Working on a dos script that disables/enables a few devices.
Using development app called devcon.
Heres a sample
devcon disable *"%webcam%"*
Thing is that the device in question (microphone) comes up as a bundle being it is the speaker and the microphone in one.
So if I disable "Realtek High Definition Audio" then it will disable both devices.

Does anyone know of a way to get around this problem?
Would settle for just muting the microphone through as dos script.

try disable realtek high definition input device.

no listing in the devcon for the realtek high definition input device. It seems that it is only one device showing.
Here is the output of all devices below. The only way I can see how to do it is to disable the actual microphone (not the device) or turn the input down. Need to achieve through dos command though.

Only if the microphone was a separate device, e.g. a Blue tooth or USB Microphone, would you be able to kill the mic and leave the sound untouched...

this has to do with the fact that the sound card controls both output and input...

How to ask a question, when posting them to a professional forum.
Only ask questions with yes/no answers if you want "yes" or "no"

Try a program called NirCMD.  I used it to unmute certain outputs and preset volumes on lab machines upon bootup, etc.
