how to get a new lifecam studio webcam to work in windows 10

Hi Keningignoli,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

1) Have you installed the drivers which are necessary for new LifeCam studio webcam to work?

If not, I suggest you to install the drivers and check if it helps.

I suggest you to update the graphics card drivers/display drivers from manufacturer website and check if it resolves the issue.

• 
  Open Device Manager.
  
• 
  Expand ‘Display Adapter’.
  
• 
  Locate the display driver.
  
• 
  Right-click on the display card listed and click on ‘Update Driver Software’
  

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

 

Lifecam studio webcam can't run on Windows

Hi Ashton, thank you for trying to help solve my LifeCam Studio problem.

Yes I have attempted to install software from https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/449688...
this is where I receive the message LifeCam can't run on Windows...check for an updated version of this app that runs on Windows.

I also followed PW and CH suggestions, unfortunately I'm still unable to have control over the camera functions like zoom, pan and tilt, using skype and the edge camera there is no way to adjust the camera settings

Device manager shows Microsoft LifeCam Studio driver version 5.20.102.0 Date 07/01/2016

Device manager on the events Tab device install requested, information is Device USB\VID_045E&PID_0772&MI_00\6&2475ca9a&0&0000 requires further installation.

I should mention lifeCam Studio isn't listed in programs and features in control panel, also I did a restart then connected the USB cable again.

Any further suggestions would be appreciated

 

Microsoft LifeCam Studio

GOOD MORNING

Thanks for responding to my question. My LifeCam Studio is not downloading properly. I've tried every recommendation given and no success.

If I may: I run windows10 PRO on a Gateway SX2855 Desktop. In Installing the webcam, links tell me of the installing and completion of install of the LifeCam Studio. When I open the camera link I see myself on screen with directions to operate the installed
Camera although there would be no image without the LifeCam Studio being installed, there are no features, controls, etc, nothing relating to the LifeCam Studio.

In Programs and Features there is no mention of the LifeCam Studio Although, I found it in Device Manager! I can find no LifeCam Studio software or mention of it on my computer. I have followed the link for "LifeCam Updates", the link goes back and forth
telling me to "make sure that the LifeCam is connected". I do, and nothing happens.

Now I've done all the 'uninstalls and installs' I can think of and the ones I've been instructed to do. I've even bought a Driver Update service. So, please help me if you can. I'm open to any suggestions you may have.

A final though: Do I have a defective Camera?
