  1. Camera Reserved By Another App, Error: 0xA00F42430xC00D3704


    I have verified the drivers are up to date, ensured privacy settings are enabled, formed an SFC scan, reset the camera app, and tried all troubleshooters. As far as I can tell, there are no other camera using apps running the background. Not working with the camera app, Discord, Zoom, or BlueJeans. I need my webcam for online classes so this is a very frustrating issue.

    :)

    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?

    Missing apps: Store, People, Photos, Games & Camera on upgrading to 10

    Thanks for replying spunk. That's the 'alphabetical' list I was referring to, none of these apps are in that 'All apps' list. Any more suggestions?
