  1. Camera Not taking picture.


    Hi,


    I am not able to use Camera in my Laptop.


    If I open Camera App, front camera is recognized light started glowing, I could Front camera facing message on screen but when I click take photo button , some click sound is coming and it is NOT capturing photo.


    I have tried below but nothing helped,


    1. Uninstall and Install Camera using device Manager

    2. Driver is up to date.


    I am not sure when this issue is started occurring.


    Device status in properties of Integrated webcam is showing "This device is working properly."


    Roll back driver option is disabled in properties.



    Please Provide your inputs to solve this problem.


    Below is my system Information:

  2. When I take a photo of myself with my laptop camera, what directory is it placed in?

    By default, your pictures should appear in your Pictures\Camera Roll folder. If they aren't there, follow these steps to figure out where they are being saved:

    1. Take a picture with the camera app.
    2. Click the thumbnail of the picture you just took at the bottom right of the app.
    3. When the photo viewer opens, click the three dots (...) at the top right and select "File Info".

    A panel will then appear and it will tell you the directory where your picture is located.

    If you created your account picture by going to your account settings and then selecting "create your picture -> camera", then the picture will not have been stored in your camera roll. It will be located in %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\AccountPictures as mentioned by @kicken.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
