Recording instruments

Since changing to Windows 11, my Audacity program will only record my voice. I need to record instruments also; how can I get back to the Audacity that I’ve used for fifteen years? I’ve tried reloading and I’ve consulted Best Buy’s Geek Squad, all in vain.

On this occasion not Audacity’s fault:
there are Windows audio enhancements which permit speech, but block musical notes.

Things got complicated in Audacity version 3. The last version 2, was 2.4.2, (from 2020), see …

The last version 2, 2.4.2

Thank you very much; that’s solved my problem! I’ve passed the information on to Best Buy Geek Squad.
