I accidentally uninstalled my camera driver. I have tried everything, but still no driver can be found for the camera. I tried to download it from the HP official website, but it couldn't be found for the HP 15 notebook. Can anybody tell where I can find the driver or how I can install it back?

@Mohit_b, Hi there, and welcome to HP Support Community!
Thank you for reaching out with your concern. I'm glad to assist you today.
If you've accidentally uninstalled your HP TrueVision HD camera driver and can't find it on the HP website for your HP 15 Notebook, don't worry, here are several ways to restore it:
Use Windows Update (Recommended First Step)
Many HP camera drivers are delivered through Windows Update:
- Go to Settings > Windows Update
- Click Check for updates
- Install any available updates and restart your PC
Use HP Support Assistant (Automatic Detection)
HP Support Assistant can detect your device and install the correct drivers:
- Download it from HP Support Assistant - HP Support Assistant | HP® Support
- Install and run the tool
- It will scan your system and suggest the correct camera driver
Reinstall via Device Manager
If the driver was uninstalled:
- Press Windows + X and select Device Manager
- Expand Imaging Devices or Cameras
- If you see HP TrueVision HD Camera, right-click and choose Uninstall device
- Restart your PC - Windows should reinstall the driver automatically
If the camera is not listed:
- In Device Manager, click Action > Scan for hardware changes
Manually Download from HP Website
- Visit the HP Software and Driver Downloads page
- Enter your exact HP 15 model number (e.g., HP 15s-fqxxxx)
- Select your Windows version
- Look under Driver – Camera and download the available driver
Check Camera Privacy Settings
Sometimes the camera is disabled via privacy settings:
- Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Camera
- Ensure Camera access and Let apps access your camera are turned On
