Windows 10: Logitech C920 Webcam not working in Windows 10

Hi,


I'll keep this as clear and concise as possible,


Webcam doesn't output any picture at all, only a black screen, this occurs within the Logitech Software itself, any applications, basically everywhere.


I have tried the camera on 2 different computers with Windows 10 installed.


Info/What I've Tried:


> Camera lights up when it is being utilised, however always a black output.

> Detected in Device Manager

> Tried uninstalling drivers, restarting
> Tried different USB Ports

> Tried USB 2.0, USB 3.0

> Tried the default webcam driver

> Within Privacy settings Camera/Microphone have full access and they're turned on for all Apps.

> Tried adding the registry value within Platform called 'EnableFrameServerMode'

> Motherboard is updated.


At this point I'm completely stuck, google and my own knowledge took me nowhere


Any help appreciated,


Kind Regards

:)

 

Logitech c920 webcam no longer works.

I use a Logitech c920 webcam with my Dell 5567 laptop.

Setup is Windows 10 version 1709, latest.

After the latest Windows update, when I open the Logitech c920 software interface the webcam is not detected. But if I click on Quick Capture, I can see images but the webcam controls and advanced settings are no longer available. When I open up Preferences,
the microphone setting does not function.

I've already done a complete reinstall, several times, but to no avail.

If I use Skype and select the c920, again the imaging/video works. But also cannot open the c920 webcam settings from within Skype video settings.

Is there a fix for this?

I've just noticed that the Windows Firewall includes an item called "Windows Camera"



- I wasn't aware that this even existed..
- is it possible that the Logitech Webcam software is defaulting to this location?

just to add more spookiness, the Settings option in Skype shows that the C920 is being used:





..so it will run as an app from within Skype, but not as a stand-alone program via the Desktop Shortcut
- which is a bit odd..

I uninstalled the XBox App from the Start Screen, just in case the webcam was defaulting to that software,
- but no luck yet.. (??)
