@HarshaRonnie Welcome to HP Community!

If you've got more than one antivirus program, please uninstall the most recent as they are known to have issues with privacy settings causing the camera to be blocked, if you continue to have issues or you have only one working antivirus program, please check if the camera works in safe mode: click here to know how to access the same.

 

If the issue persists, please reinstall the drivers by removing the same from the device manager and then restarting the computer for it to automatically reinstall the right drivers that should resolve the issue.

 

NOTE: 

The name of your webcam might display as USB Video Device, HP Webcam, USB 2.0 Camera, HP Pavilion Webcam, or similar. If you do not know the name, select a name to see if video displays. If not, try selecting other video device names until you see the video from your webcam display in the window.

@HarshaRonnie I'm glad that the issue has been resolved, coincidentally its similar to what I had suggested, so please do mark my post as the solution to help others find the same solution you have and make it easier for the rest.

 

It's been a pleasure interacting with you,

Have a good day, ahead.
