Not recognized/Recognized but no sound
Sorry no. Because all FIFINE USB microphones use a universal driver built into Windows and Mac and even some Linux and Chromebook systems. So there is no specific driver to download. If the driver fails to trigger the automatic installation on Windows, just follow the steps below to update and reinstall the driver. For the other systems users, please check out the correspondent tabs.

Because of the variations of the Chrome OS system, we have only confirmed the computer models and system versions below work.
Toshiba Chromebook 2 (2015) with OS Version: 67.0.3396.99;
Acer R11 with Version: 71;
Acer C720, Acer C740, Samsung Series 3, and Samsung Series 5 with OS Version: 72.0.3626.117.
Then downloaded a Voice Recorder app from the Play Store, you're good to go.
It works when using with a proper USB adapter. But we recommend using it only with Windows and Mac computers, because you can't speak into the microphone and hear from the smartphone at the same time.
Android with a micro-USB port needs a micro-USB male to type-A female adapter.
Android with a type-C port needs a type-C male to type-A female adapter.
iPhone/iPad with a lightning port needs a lightning male to type-A female adapter.
iPhone/iPad with a type-C port needs a type-C male to type-A female adapter.
⚠️Highly recommend the adapter from Apple store if you do want to use the mic for your Apple mobiles.

⚠️Go to "Setting"-"Devices"-"Audio Devices"-uncheck the option of "Switch Output Device Automatically"-plug the microphone into the console while the headset into your controller-choose the correct input and output devices. The shortfall is that you have to do it every time when using your Play Station.
⚠️The mic doesn't work with the Xbox console nor controller directly. So we don't recommend using it with the Xbox. But there's a way to do so. You can get it work but the sound quality would become so bad that you would rather not doing so.
Plug the mic to a computer-enable the montoring feature (please refer to "It's recognized, but I didn't hear any sound coming out of my Windows when I spoke" part)-find a 3.5mm audio cable-plug one end into the computer headphone jack and the other end into your Xbox controller.
Volume level/Background sound/Echo
For Windows users, under "recording devices", right click "USB PnP Audio Device"/"FIFINE T669 Microphone", choose "Properties", click "Enhancement" and uncheck the "allow applications to take excluisive control of this device"
For Windows and Mac users, check if the feature of automatically adjusting microphone level has been enabled, which is commonly seen in software of Discord, Skype, etc.

Instead of using speakers, either internal or external, please use headphones or earbuds to connect to your computer. Then the mic will not pick up sound from output device, thus no more echo will be heard.
