@skyraj, Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

Check Device Manager

  • Press Windows + X and select Device Manager.
  • Scroll down and find Imaging Devices. Expand it and check if your camera is listed.
  • If you see a yellow triangle or a question mark, right-click on the camera device and select Update Driver.
  • If no camera is listed, try the next steps.

Enable the Camera

  • Press Windows + I to open Settings.
  • Go to Privacy > Camera.
  • Ensure the option Allow apps to access your camera is turned on.
  • Scroll down and make sure that apps you want to use with the camera (like Zoom, Teams, etc.) have access to it.

Check for Driver Updates

  • Open Device Manager again.
  • Right-click your camera under Imaging Devices, then select Update Driver.
  • Choose Search automatically for updated driver software and follow the on-screen instructions.

Check for Windows Updates

  • Sometimes, a Windows update can fix the issue.
  • Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and click Check for updates.

Restart Your Laptop

  • After doing the above steps, restart your laptop and check if the camera works.

Reinstall Camera Driver

  • In Device Manager, right-click the camera under Imaging Devices and select Uninstall Device.
  • Restart your computer, and Windows will automatically reinstall the drivers.

Check Your Camera App Settings

  • If you’re using a specific app (e.g., Zoom, Skype), go to the settings in the app and make sure the correct camera is selected.
  • Sometimes, these apps might default to a different camera or have specific settings that need adjusting.

I hope these steps help resolve the issue

Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps.
