Webcam light doesnt work causing the video to be blurry

[jekylohydes]

The webcam light doesn't come on at all.  this causes the picture to be blurry and not crisp. I have tried to update the driver and get the message that the driver is the current one available.  I have disabled the camera and enabled it.  nothing seems to work.  it all seems to revolve around the webcam light.  I think if it was lit the video would be better.  any ideas?  thanks

@jekylohydes you might need to uninstall the webcam driver.

To do this, open Device Manager > right-click on the device > select Properties > switch to Driver tab > click on Uninstall Device button.

Restart your computer and then open Device Manager again and click on Action > Scan for hardware changes. (this would automatically reinstall the best drivers for it)

Once done, I suggest you install all the latest pending Windows updates as below and check if it helps.

1. Go to “settings” and click on “update and security”.
2. Under tab “Windows update”, click on the icon “check for updates”.
3. Then once you find the pending updates install it and check.
