    Missing Imaging Devices


    Ok,

    I do not have any imaging devices at all. There is no software installed for my built in camera at all.

    Therefore my question is where I could download the camera software (much like for built in mic and sound)?

    Imaging Devices missing in Device Manager and Webcam doesn't working

    Hi,

    Since you mentioned that the said driver is missing in Device Manager, what we suggest is for you to check in the Hidden Devices section on Device Manager. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • On the desktop, press Windows key + X and select
      Device Manager.
    • Click on View and select
      Show Hidden Devices.
    • Check for the webcam under Imaging Devices.
    • If the webcam is listed, then right-click on it and select
      Update Driver Software
    • Select Browse My Computer for Driver Software and follow the prompted steps.
    Please post back with the result for further assistance

    IMAGING DEVICE IS MISSING!

    This doesn't help.

    Imaging devices are not in Device Manager, There is no Webcam listed, Windows 10 isn't showing the webcam, The manufacturer used the Windows default driver so there are no legacy drivers to download.

    For some reason I can't even select a webcam in the install legacy device window.

    The imaging devices that are listed are all scanners. Not a single webcam listed.

    Thanks MS for yet again not listening or caring about your end user.

    missing camcorder imaging device "drivers"

    It looks like the manufacturer of the device you're trying to install didn't release drivers to Windows 10.

    As a workaround, we suggest that you contact your manufacturer and ask for the legacy drivers of the device for Windows 7. Once you have the file of the drivers, right-click on it and choose
    Extract. Once done, add it as a legacy driver. To do so, see the steps below:

    • Go to Device Manager > Action > Add legacy hardware. Follow the virtual steps to add a hardware.
    • Once done, it will show you the common hardware types; then, choose IEEE 1394 host controllers.
    • After choosing IEEE 1394 host controllers, it will show you the page to select the manufacturer and model of your hardware.
    • To choose for the legacy driver you've extracted, click Have Disk >
      Browse. Now it will show you the window to locate the file.

    Let us know what happens after doing the suggestions above.
