[SOLVED] My mic is too sensitive, can't change settings.

So I just bought an Amazonbasics mini condenser mic, which is a pretty good budget mic as I've seen in a lot of youtube review videos, it's a plug and play, but my friends on discord tell me that they can hear my mom washing the dishes which is pretty far away from me and they tell that they hear my voice really loud and like close to the mic. So I went into windows audio settings went into recording, selected my amazonbasics mic, went to levels and didn't find the Microphone boost (gain, sensitivity, etc) there, so I can't fix it. I wanted to know if it might be an external issue or if it is my mic that doesn't allow that. I have an x470 prime pro mobo, and the audio software that I have are: Logitech Gaming Software, Realtek Audio Software up to date from their website, NVIDIA HD Audio driver and the Steam streaming audio driver (Which, as far as I know, it's used when you are streaming stuff to your Steam Link, which I have)

Try going to audio devices (right click sound icon on taskbar) and lower the volume of your mic to the desired volume.
