Windows 10: 0xA00F4241<CameraSwitchFailed> 0x800706BE

Hello!


I'd like to ask for help using the Windows Camera. I keep getting the error :

Can't start your camera
If you're sure the camera is connected and installed properly, try checking for updated drivers.

If you need it, here's the code:
0xA00F4241<CameraSwitchFailed> 0x800706BE​

My ASUS tablet has two cameras. The front-facing camera works, but if I try the world-facing one, i encounter that error.


So far I've tried the following:

1. Uninstall, reinstall, and update drivers
2. Full reset of Windows, then uninstall, reinstall, and update drivers
3. Privacy settings
4. Disable Windows Defender / Firewall
5. EnableFrameServerMode workaround breaks the front camera too

What is interesting is that the world-facing camera works when I try it on Skype or Viber.


I saw the following errors in the Event Viewer:


Faulting application name: svchost.exe_FrameServer, version: 10.0.18362.1, time stamp: 0x32d6c210

I am on Version 1909, Build 18363.815. DxDiag shows 3 video capture devices, 1 front, 1 rear, and 1 IR camera....

Could this be a driver issue? If so, how can I upgrade the ones I already have? Windows Update says there are no new updates.


Thanks!

:)

On step 11, it requires to reinstall Windows Update Agent, where can I download the Windows Update Agent for Windows Server 2016?
