Audacity Forum

I'm trying to record the conversation in Teams but I couldn't get any audio input I don't use Team Viewer, but it is common for voip and similar apps to take exclusive control of the sound system, making it impossible to record with Audacity running on the same computer. I do not wish to make known...

I don't recall that being a known bug, but that's an old version of Audacity. The current version is 2.4.2: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/windows/

It always really hard on the recording.

That depends on what equipment you are using.
With a dynamic mic plugged into a USB mic pre-amp, it should be quite easy - certainly easier than recording something that is very quiet.

an aux cable

What exactly is your "aux cable" ?

Is your computer a full size computer or a laptop?
What audio in / out connections does it have?
