    Camera app says "something went wrong" while trying to record


    Every time I were to start to record, my camera would say "something went wrong" with a bunch of numbers and letter underneath. Then, I followed a suggestion from Microsoft that happened with another person's microphone, and checking the properties to see if they work and all of them said they worked, but obviously something is wrong. I played around with their settings, and it doesn't say it isn't working, it just doesn't work at all anymore. Help!

    download Windows camera app

    Success in resetting Store; that produced a download of the Windows camera, despite seeing error message again, download proceeded. Screen shows MS app for Windows camera and indicates downloaded. (Camera now listed in app list.) But when Launch was selected,
    no action after screen with camera icon. Eventually message appeared " something went wrong: here is message code if needed: 0x400F4271>MediaCaptureFailedEvent>0xC00D3704. We seem to be moving ahead a step at a time. Next suggestion?

  3. Windows Phone Camera App: Recording Video with headset microphone instead of internal mic

    Hello,

    The phone only uses the built-in mic when recording videos on the Camera app. If you want to use an external mic when recording videos, it is best that you send this suggestion through Feedback Hub so our developers can work on it. To send a feedback on
    your phone, you can follow the steps below:

    • Go to All apps, search for the Feedback
      Hub app.
    • Open the Menu icon at the top left side.
    • Select Feedback, then tap the Add button
      (+) at the top right side.
    • Select Suggestion and provide the details needed in the box.
    • Select the right category and then submit.

    Let us know if you have any concerns.

    How to open camera and start camera recording in windows 10 using commands

    Hi Kire,

    • Right-click on the Start button and choose Run.
    • Enter this command in the Run dialog box: microsoft.windows.camera:.
