My device is hp laptop (Windows 11). I deleted the inbuilt webcam driver by mistake and now the webcam won't work.

The camera driver is missing from device manager so I can't reinstall driver from there.

I have already tried: a)Troubleshooting

b)Tried"scan for hardware changes"

c)Tried "Add legacy hardware"

d)Driver is not in the'imaging devices'.

e)Tried resetting camera app.

f)Restarted the device 3-4 times.

I tried downloading driver from official hp site but i dont know which driver to download and how

Thank you.

    Hi Srijan.

    Thanks for sharing the screenshot.

    I am afraid that there is no camera driver provided in the HP official website for Windows 11 to your laptop model, however, you can install older version and see if it works or not:

    Please keep me updated
