    Depends upon what the webcam has for a mounting system, some have a type of a clamp. Or use Velcro, check the sewing department at Wal*Mart, Joann's Fabrics, etc.

    How can I check whether I can safely mount a webcam on my monitor?

    Determine if webcam was ever installed

    Can you mount the camera safely on the top of your monitor? Accessory webcams are quite light and include a clip that lets you balance the webcam on top of your monitor.

    If so, your next step is to install the software for the webcam, which either came with the webcam on a disk or is downloadable from the camera manufacturer's website.

    You'll need a version of the software that was created for Windows 10, otherwise there's no guarantee that it will work properly. It might work just fine ... or not.

    If you need to buy an accessory webcam, do not spend a lot of money on it. A basic webcam will set you back around $30 or $40 and has everything you need. Just make sure it's supported on Windows 10.
