Hello!
I'd like to ask for help using the Windows Camera. I keep getting the error :
Can't start your camera
If you're sure the camera is connected and installed properly, try checking for updated drivers.
If you need it, here's the code:
0xA00F4241<CameraSwitchFailed> (0x800706BE)
My ASUS tablet has two cameras. The front-facing camera works, but if I try the world-facing one, i encounter that error.
So far I've tried the following:
- Uninstall, reinstall, and update drivers
- Full reset of Windows, then uninstall, reinstall, and update drivers
- Privacy settings
- Disable Windows Defender / Firewall
- EnableFrameServerMode workaround (breaks the front camera too)
What is interesting is that the world-facing camera works when I try it on Skype or Viber.
I saw the following errors in the Event Viewer:

I am on Version 1909, Build 18363.815. DxDiag shows 3 video capture devices, 1 front, 1 rear, and 1 IR camera....
Could this be a driver issue? If so, how can I upgrade the ones I already have? Windows Update says there are no new updates.
Thanks!
