    How do I select the external camera for Windows Hello?


    I have an HP laptop that runs Windows 11. Most of the time, it is connected to a large screen HP monitor that has an integrated camera and the laptop itself running with the lid closed. I have had Windows Hello set up to use the monitor camera for my sign in. But last week, I had to unplug my laptop from the monitor to take it with me on a trip. Ever since I got back and plugged my laptop back into the monitor, it is no longer using the monitor camera for Windows Hello. How do I tell it to please use monitor camera instead of making me open the laptop back up to use that camera?

    :)
