Windows 10: camera driver is not in device manager

my camera was not working so i tried troubleshooting and unfortunately the camera was not found in the device manger eventhough i tried every possible way to find the device in the device manger and tried the option given in the help button. I even tried options which was recommended in youtube and google. Is there any driver that i need to download in order for my camera to function normally. Thank you for your help and support.
