built-in webcam no longer detected after upgrading MSI laptop to Windows 11

model - MSI GS75 Stealth 95D

after upgrading to Windows 11, the built-in webcam is no longer working. It doesn't show up in the device manager. And If I open the camera app, it gives me the error code: 0xA00F4244<NoCamerasAreAttached>

I would like to roll back to Windows 10 because I need my camera to work but the option of going back to a previous version is no longer available.

Can someone please suggest something that might get the camera back online?

Thanks so much.

    Hi Ken

    Click your Start Button, then just type SCM

    If you see the MSI SCM Control Panel on the resulting list, open that, is the webcam turned off on that utility?

    Hi Carlo, thanks for the help. Unfortunately, I can't do those steps because it is no longer showing up in the device manager. Thanks. Ken

    This really worked thank yo so much, Was struggling all these days.

    Guys its not any software issue, its just that by mistake we might have pressed Fn+F6 which restricted camera funtionality completely. Just press Fn+F6 and you will access to your camera.
