    Windows 10 Pro has been working - tried to use webcam, didn't update correctly and caused...


    I have been running Windows 10 Pro on a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop ever since the free upgrade to Windows 10 was first available.


    I haven't had any issues until about a week ago when I tried to use my Microsoft LifeCam HD-5001 Webcam it has always worked before when I needed it for an upcoming Skype session that I was supposed to be in. I hadn't used it for a while and I always try to test it before I have to use it for anything. First, when I tried to open it from the START menu as normal, the box popped up for my cam like my cam was getting ready to run then inside that box I got an error message saying that Windows could not locate my camera.


    I tried everything listed to resolve the problem..... I am no "techie" but I do understand computers and Windows and how they operate or at least I thought I did...... after going through all those steps... trying all the new Windows 10 updates... driver updates for the webcam.... other issues followed. Now nothing works in Windows like it is supposed to... or like it use to.... bad part is I can't even replicate any of issues to show what is happening.


    The hotkey Win-R is the only one working... and can get a few places from there.... nothing happens when try to click on the START menu or type in the search box... can't get to NOTIFICATIONS... speaker icon has red x and when I hover over it says "The Audio Service is not running"... icons have disappeared from the task bar... !!!!!!!


    Just very frustrated and hope that there is fix to correct all these issues that have presented themselves.....


    Can anyone help ?


    Thanks

    :)

    Hi Guillaume,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    Let me help you to fix the issue.

    The issue you are facing could be due to the Webcam driver is being outdated. Let’s try simple steps and check if this helps.
    I suggest you to update the webcam driver manually and check if it helps. Follow the below steps.


    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Device manager
      .

    • Locate for Imaging devices and expand it.

    • Right click on the device driver and click on
      update.
    If the issue still persist I would recommend you to go to the webcam manufacturer website and download the latest updated driver and install the same.

    Getting started - HD Pro Webcam C920

    For the error code 10, follow the above steps and try updating the controller device driver and check.

    Hope this helps. If you need further assistance with Windows, let us know and will be glad to help.
