Hi,

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

I understand that your built-in camera is not being detected, and the screenshot shows the Windows Camera error 0xA00F4244 (NoCamerasAreAttached).

Please try the following steps:

Check the camera privacy settings

• Go to Settings > Privacy & security > Camera.
• Turn on camera access.
• Also enable Let apps to access your camera.

Check Device Manager

• Right-click Start > Device Manager.
• Expand cameras, imaging devices, and sound, video, and game controllers.
• Check whether the camera is listed.
• If it is listed, right-click it and select Enable device if that option is available.
• If there is a warning icon, let us know the error code.

Scan for hardware changes

• In Device Manager, select Action > Scan for hardware changes.
• Check whether the camera appears afterward.

Run HP Hardware Diagnostics

• Shut down the laptop.
• Turn it on and repeatedly press Esc.
• Press F2 to open HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI.
• Run the available Camera/Webcam test and note any failure ID.

If the camera does not appear in Device Manager at all, please provide the exact HP model/product number and let us know whether your laptop has a physical camera privacy shutter or camera privacy key. This will help us determine the next step.

Best regards,
