Windows 10: Enable Camera

My camera is enabled in every app, but some desktop apps don't have the option to enable camera. I have been having meetings using Zoom and I can't make my camera work. It shows the light that it is on but doesn't show any image, just a camera icon with a dash. How can I make it work?

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.
