    Why is my camera light turning on and off randomly when I try to access twitter on...


    I checked camera's last used apps, scanned for malware it returned nothing. It only happens when I open twitter on microsoft edge browser and specifically when my Bose NC headphones are connected. I tested this multiple times and it happened repeatedly. I also accessed twitter with my headphones on other browsers like brave, firefox and chrome, this issue does not exist. It only happens with edge and I have no clue what is happening. I also restricted camera access permissions, it doesn't work.

    :)

    Skype for Business' access to camera

    Scroll down. Those are only Store apps listed. Other apps are listed below. First you turn access on, and then you have the list off other apps

    Here is mine

    Edit: and maybe some other program is using your camera at the time... only one can use it (at the time)
