Windows 10: ivcam and computer camera

I installed ivcam yesterday and it appears that everything went ok with that installation. My Iphone works as my camera, no problem. Today I tried to connect my granddaughter to an appointment on my computer and the computer camera would not connect. Are the two things related? if so, how do I fix it? If not, how do I figure out what is wrong with my computer camera? Thanks!

If you have the camera connected to the computer, I would suggest that you disconnect the camera and then try to open the Camera app.



If the camera app opens, follow the steps below:

• Select “Settings” option.
• Select “Permissions” option.
• Turn on “Allow this app to access your: Webcam and Microphone” option.
• Lose the app by pressing “Alt key + F4” from your keyboard.
• Reopen the Camera app.
• Connect your camera and then check how this app works.

Goodluck!
