    Camera and Microphone Privacy

    Hi Moustafa,

    This issue occurs due to permission issue, driver issue, license for an app is out of sync with the license installed on the computer or if the app is not updated. To give permission to Camera and Microphone app, you may follow
    these steps:

    • Go to Settings.
    • Select Privacy.
    • Look for Camera, make sure that “Let apps use my camera” is turned On. You may choose the apps that can use your camera as well.
    • Go back to Privacy and select Microphone, make sure that “Let apps use my microphone” is turned On. You may choose the apps that can use your microphone as well.

    If the issue persists, we would suggest that you check out this
    link    . This will provide you troubleshooting steps regarding Camera and Microphone issues.

    window crashes when i open camera or microphone setting in privacy

    There's a possibility that another device driver is in conflict with the one that has been updated. I suggest rolling back the driver for your camera and microphone. Follow these steps:

    • Right-click the Windows key and click Device Manager.
    • Navigate to and expand Imaging devices.
    • Right-click your camera and click Properties.
    • Click the Driver tab, then select the Roll Back Driver option.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions.
    • Click OK when finished.

    Please do the same for the microphone and update this thread with the results.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Regards.

    Microphone/Camera Tab

    Camera and microphone

    I tried to use the camera to make a video - on Lenovo Ideapad 330S OS 10 - but the "microphone muted" message prevented the video to record.

    I did the settings/privacy/microphone suggestion to no avail. I tried to get Cortana to turn on the mic but she cannot hear me. I did the steps to turn her on but she still can't hear me. Suggestions? thanks
