    Hi, good day!

    Could you provide the following information?

    • Is this a built-in webcam or an external USB camera?
    • Does the camera appear in Device Manager? If so, what is its exact name?
    • What is your Windows version? Press Win + R to open Run, type winver, and share the operating system and version.
    • Did the camera stop working after a Windows update, driver update, or any hardware/software changes?

    I look forward to your update and am willing to collaborate with you until we resolve the issue. Keep me posted by clicking "Add comments" below.
