    Hi Diegode

    On your Lenovo is there a privacy slider that can be used to block the webcam, check if that exists, it is usually beside or above the webcam

    In the Settings App in Windows 10, go to Privacy - Webcam

    Is the App you are using allowed to access your webcam?

    Hi Diegode

    What is the exact Model No. of your Lenovo laptop - that will be printed on a sticker on the bottom casing . . .

    Hi Diegode

    Your camera driver appears to be installed correctly, it is just your webcam is turned off

    On the function keys (F1 - F12) on your keyboard, one of those should be to toggle on/off your webcam

    Try pressing that key on its own, and if that does not toggle on your webcam, press the Fn key + that function key, to see if that will turn on your webcam . . .
