  2. Tried messenger for camera....

    Hi,

    Normally, the issue with the camera not being detected is caused by an outdated driver or a recent update triggers a system conflict. To assist you with your concern, we suggest that you follow the steps listed on this
    link. This is to identify and resolve any issues if Windows
    can't detect the device.

    Let us know how it goes after performing the suggested steps.

    Cannot find Scan valid interval on wireless adapter

    Hello Betty,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Scan Valid Interval is the amount of time that your wireless driver scans for other access points and most wireless cards are set to 60. To change the interval to 120, kindly follow the steps listed below and see if it helps.

    • Press Windows + R keys to open
      Run
      command. Type ncpa.cpl and click on OK.
    • Right click on your Wireless adapter and choose
      Properties.
    • Click on Configure option and click on
      Advanced
      tab.
    • From the left pane, select Scan Valid Interval and click on the drop-down menu from the right side to configure its value to
      120.
    • After making the changes, click on OK.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards,

    Thanks for updating us on the results of the troubleshooting steps that you have completed. Since the built-in webcam is still not working correctly and the same error code 0xA00F4244 (0xC00DABED) is still appearing, we suggest that we check the camera privacy
    settings to see if the camera access is turned on. Kindly follow the steps below to check the camera privacy settings:

    • Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings app.
    • Near the top of the Settings app window is the search box, kindly type the word "webcam" or "camera".
    • From the list of results choose Camera privacy settings.
    • Make sure that "Let apps use my camera" toggle is set to On.

    We look forward to your response once you complete the steps.
