Webcam not working

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



This issue can occur if the camera drivers are not up-to date, your anti-virus may be blocking the camera, or camera app is not installed properly. I would suggest you to follow the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the article:
Camera does not work in Windows 10. You can also refer to the suggestion on HP article:
HP PCs - Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 10, 8).



If you need any further assistance, please write back with the following information:

1. What happens when you are trying to access Camera app?
   
2. What is the exact error message you are getting?
   
3. What is version of Windows 10 that is installed on your device?
   
4. Are you using an external webcam? If yes, please help us with the make and model of the webcam.
   

Regards,

Issues with Webcam

Thank you. I did come across the HP site you've provided and tried some of the remedies offered. I tried the suggestions to reinstall the webcam software and the one that spoke about the WebCam not being listed under imaging devices in Device manager.
