Hi @Mero2672004,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

To turn off the microphone signal indicator on an HP computer screen, you can follow these general steps.

• Locate the audio control panel or settings on your HP computer. This can usually be accessed by right-clicking on the speaker icon in the system tray (bottom-right corner of the screen) and selecting "Sounds," "Playback devices," or a similar option.
• In the audio control panel or settings, look for the "Recording" or "Input" tab. This is where you can manage your microphone settings.
• In the list of recording devices, locate the microphone you are using. It might be labeled with the microphone's name or simply as "Microphone" or "Line In."
• Right-click on the microphone device and select "Properties" or "Settings" from the context menu. This will open a new window with the microphone properties.
• In the microphone properties window, you should find an option to enable or disable the microphone. It might be a checkbox labeled "Enable" or a similar setting. Uncheck or disable the option to turn off the microphone.
• Click "Apply" or "OK" to save the changes and close the properties window.

By following these steps, you should be able to turn off the microphone signal indicator on the top of your HP computer screen. Keep in mind that the exact steps and options might vary slightly depending on your specific HP computer model and operating system version.

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
