<<<I have installed and remove audacity 3 times.>>>

That doesn't actually reinstall Audacity. You also have to remove the preference files. The Windows people will be along shortly to show you how to do that.

<<<You don't hear the person's voice.>>>

What person? We can't see your computer or you. What are you trying to record or where are they?

I'm guessing you are listening to the voice on the computer speakers while you are recording, and you are getting feedback.
There are two ways to fix this:
1. Use headphons to listen while recording.
or
2. In Edit > Preferences > Recording, turn off Software Playthrough.
