Hi @NNolan27
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.
To open the camera shutter on your HP Pavilion All-in-One 24, follow these steps:
- Locate the Privacy Shutter – The camera shutter is usually positioned near the webcam at the top of your screen.
- Identify the Sliding Mechanism – Some models have a physical slider that you can move left or right to open or close the shutter.
- Slide to Open – Gently slide the shutter to the open position until the camera lens is fully exposed.
- Check the Camera – Open the Camera app on Windows to confirm that the webcam is functioning properly.
If your model has a different mechanism, you can check out this HP Support page or watch this video tutorial for a visual guide.
