    Hi Thomas,

    • Click Hardware and Sound.
    • Then click Hardware and Devices.
    • The troubleshooter will start, follow further on-screen instructions.
    • Restart your computer.
    • Method 2: Reinstall Windows Hello drivers.
    • Before you re-install the Windows Hello driver, make sure it's updated. On the other hand, if your Windows Hello driver is up to date, try reinstalling it.
    • Go to Search, type device manage, and open Device Manager.
    • Find your windows Hello driver, right-click and select Uninstall.
    • Restart your computer.
    • On the next startup, Windows 10 will automatically detect Windows Hello, and install the latest driver for it.
    • Once the driver installs, try running Windows Hello to see if the issue is resolved.
    • Method 3: Make sure your camera drivers are compatible.
    • Make sure that your camera driver is up to date.
    • If your camera drivers are up to date, try reinstalling it.
    • Steps are similar with method 2.
    • Method 4: Turn off Fast Startup.
    • Type power options in the Search box, and open the Power Options.
    • Select Choose what the power buttons do.
    • Click on Change settings that are currently unavailable.
