Windows 10: Device Manager in windows 10 does not recognize my Logictech C920 web cam.

The only camera that comes up is the integrated web cam. the mic for the C920 web cam shows up, but not the camera itself. I have tried downloaded the latest drivers, unplugged and replugged in the camera. The USB does work, I plugged in the plug for my wireless mouse and that works fine. The camera worked perfectly right before the latest windows update. I even checked my antivirus software and that's fine. Please help.

installing an external web cam troubles

Starting by downloading the latest drivers for your web cam model at:

Getting Started - HD Pro Webcam C920

Select Windows 10 in the list box and the architecture (32 or 64 bit) then click download.

Try installing the driver again.

If the problem persist, try installing the driver in compatibility.

If the web cam is connected to the computer, disconnect it first, install the driver, then connect the camera when prompted.

 

Lenovo w520 upgraded to windows 10 does not recognize any cam


I have a Lenovo Laptop W520 which I upgraded 2 years ago from the original Windows 7 to Windows 10
No cam problems at all - ie the Lenovo cam worked with Windows 10
10 days ago the internal cam not recognize (see pic #1)
Soon after I noticed also USB external Logitec 9000 web cam also not recognized on laptop (updated drivers installed for windows 10 and this cam works on another computer )

Microsoft says now after removing and re-installing driver - that it will never work because the Lenovo drivers are only for windows 7. But it worked just fine until 10 days ago on windows 10







Microsoft says they cannot help because driver is only for windows 7 (even tho it worked for 2 years)
Lenovo says they cannot help because they are not planing any upgrade for this integrated web cam to windows 10

I tied unsuccessful restore - I tried returning to previous windows 10 build Nada

Microsoft is now suggesting I return completely to windows 7 but I will loose all of my data programs links etc etc

can I fix this myself?

Is there anything I can do to FORCE my laptop to recognize the internal cam or a logitec cam?
Perhaps a driver that is not exactly made for this computer but will force it to recognize the cam?
