Welcome to the HP Community. This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries. I have reviewed your post and I understand, there's an issue with the Webcam.

 

Don't worry, I'm here to help! To better assist you - 

 

1) May I have the exact model name of the computer? Refer to this link for steps to find the product details. (Ensure not to share the serial number, email, phone number, etc.)

 

2) Were there any hardware or software changes made?

While you respond to that, let's try re-install the IR camera drivers -

2) Expand the Imaging Devices.
3) Right-click on the IR camera and select Uninstall.
4) Confirm the uninstallation.
5) Restart the computer to reinstall the Webcam driver.

 

Also, try updating the computer -

and open Windows Updates. 
2) Check for updates.
