    windows 10 webcam video and photo storage issue


    I have been using the webcam on my windows 10 PC. It stored these photos in the Camera Roll previously. I take the pictures and review and delete ones that I don't care for as I have done in the past. Once I leave the camera app on the webcam I cannot find the pictures in the camera roll folder or in the pictures folder. Where are the Photos and videos being saved? If not saved what could have happened to the Photos? In the past, I had no problem.. Today, October 15th 2019, my windows 10 was updated, still the same problem.
    Thank you,
    Rollins
    P.S. It may be something simple, that I may have selected something that I'm not aware of or by accident.

    :)

    Hi,



    I suggest you to follow the below methods and check if it helps.



    As you are facing issues with the photo app I suggest you to follow the below method.



    Method 1: Run the Windows App Troubleshooter



    I suggest you to download and run the app troubleshooter from the below link and check if it helps.

    For the issue related to webcam I suggest you to perform the below steps.



    Method 2:

    You may also update the Camera driver from Device Manager manually and check if this helps.

    • Press (Windows key + X) and click on “Device Manager”.
    • Expand “Other devices”.
    • Right click on the “Integrated webcam” drivers and select “Update Driver Software”. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

    Using an external webcam for photos and video

    Hi. I have a C922 Pro Stream Webcam that I use for video calls and would like to use it to take photos and record videos on my laptop. In my integrated camera settings there is no option to switch cameras and I can't figure out how to make my external webcam
    override my integrated camera. I've tried disabling my laptop camera but that didn't work.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    webcam issue

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this.

    The information which you have provided is not enough for us to determine the issue. Please provide us more information.

    • What exact error message do you receive while using Webcam?
    • Does this issue persist while using specific app/program or does it persist with all app using Webcam?




    Method 1:

    I suggest you to run the Hardware and Devices
    troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    • Type troubleshooting in the search bar.
    • Select Troubleshooting.
    • Select View all on the top left corner.
    • Click on Hardware and Devices.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.
    • Check if issue persists.




    Method 2:

    If issue persist, I suggest you to try installing Webcam drivers in compatibility mode. Compatibility mode runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows. Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check
    if that helps.

    • Download the Webcam drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
    • Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘Properties’.
    • Click on the ‘Compatibility’ tab and check the box
      ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’
      and select Windows 8/8.1 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.
    Hope this information is helpful. Do reply if you need further assistance, we will be happy to help you.
