camera not working

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:

• Press “Windows key + C” from your keyboard to open “Charms bar”.
• 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!

 

Camera not working

This is not a plug and play device, it's built into my laptop.. lol.

Sorry my bad for not mentioning, the program does install and seem to work fine. It did work when I first installed it, but it stopped working. Even if I freshly reinstall.

Errors are as followed..

When I open the program:

A webcam was not found or is not working properly.
Please click connect button and try again.

When I click the connect button....

Camera not found. The camera is in use by another application, or not connected. Make sure the camera is connected and working properly, then try again.

It is connected properly, and there are no other programs running in the back ground.

 

Camera not working

First, plug and pray does not mean where it is physically located, it could be inside or outside of the PC to be plug and play. The point of the post was the Add Hardware Wizard could try to search and locate the hardware, if it was truly available.
Quote from MS:

Secondly, the program will not use the device, if, it is not available in the the device manager, so it gives the proper error.

Third, you may have a defective camera or sub-system. You may need to take it for diagnosis and repair to someone who knows how to repair them. Or, if, you know or are willing to try. Then, you may want to crack it open and check that the ribbon cable from the camera to the motherboard is secured in place and not damaged.

Fourth, call or e-mail, ask them who was the vendor for the camera in that laptop and try the vendor site for a generic driver.

Hope you get it resolved.
Have a good day. *Smile
