Windows 10: Webcam no longer in Device Manager/Not Found after latest Windows update

After the latest Windows update, my internal webcam is no longer found on any video app and is no longer in Device Manager so I cannot access the driver.


Error code 0xA00F4244


I have been finding this has been a very common problem with the latest update yet I have seen no solution yet. It's imperative I get this working as I work remotely from home because of covid and rely on video conferencing in order to be employed. I will use an external webcam in the meantime but very frustrating timing with this problem from the update!

  Device Manager.
• Click on View and select

Integrated Webcam No longer showing in Device Manager after Windows 10 Update

I just noticed that my Integrated Webcam is no longer showing up as a device in the Device Manager. According to MSI the GT70 used the default windows WebCam drivers so there are no drivers I can download to reload it.

Attempted the following already with no improvements:

1. Scanning for Hardware changes yield nothing.

2. Nothing listed under imaging devices.

3. No Hardware Troubleshooter anymore.

4. Tried re-registering the Camera App via Powershell (Admin)

Will be uninstalling every update at this point.

 

Can't Find WebCam Device in Device Manager


In Win7 I'd do Device Manager > Imaging Devices > USB 2.0 PC Camera to find my USB WebCam and activate it and de-activate the monitor's built-in camera.

But in Win10 Device Manager has no listing for Imaging Devices.




Where in Win10 can I enable and disable webcams?
