Windows 10: We could not find a camera compatible with Windows Hello Face ---- Why?

I connected my USB camera to my new computer with Windows 11.The software has all of the latest updates as of 5/8/23 2300.The camera is recognized by Device Manager. I have updated the driver windows reported I have the best driver installed.I am able and have used it during Zoom meetings and it works properly ? best I can tell with the appropriate software. But "Windows" does not like it. Is it possibly on a list of MS band hardware? Just kidding, I know they don't have such a list.Troubleshooting did not discover any issues and even it, "updated" the drivers.I had this same issue wi

"We Couldn’t Find a Camera Compatible with Windows Hello"

I've been using Windows 10 face recognition, ie Windows Hello, for a long time without problems. Suddenly it stopped working and I discovered my security software was blocking access to the webcam. After I turned that protection off my apps, such as Zoom and Vivaldi, can access the camera again, however I can't get it reconnected to Windows Hello. When I go to Sign In Option in Settings it says that "Windows Hello Face" is currently unavailable. When I click on it it says it can't find a compatible camera. So far I've tried moving the camera to a different USB port, attempted to update the camera drivers (there are no driver updates available) and rebooted a few times, without success. Any suggestions for what to try next will be appreciated.

Currently running Windows 10.0.19043.1889

 

"Windows Hello Face"

Not all cameras are Windows Hello-compatible. Here's another thread that discusses this and provides links to a couple lists of compatible cameras:

Does your PC manufacturer claim that the camera should work with Windows Hello?
