USB does not recognise my camera

Hi Jean,

An outdated driver may have caused the issue you're experiencing with your camera. To isolate the concern and provide effective troubleshooting steps, we'd like to ask a few questions:

• What are the troubleshooting steps that you've tried on your main computer?
• Are there any error codes or error messages showing under Universal Serial Bus controllers in Device Manager? To go to the
  Device Manager, right-click on the Start menu, then choose it from the list.

For now, we suggest that you run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter which will automatically check and resolve hardware issues. Here are the steps to do so:

• Type Troubleshooting in Cortana, then select it from the list.
  
• Click on View All on the top left corner.
  
• Select Hardware and Devices from the list, then run the troubleshooter
  

We look forward to your response.
