Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

  • Did this happen after a recent window or software update?
  • Did you make any changes on the settings of your PC prior to the issue?
  • When was the last time it worked fine?
  • Have you made any hardware/software changes?

While you respond to that, let's try these steps: 

  • 1. Go into Device Manager, then Imaging Devices.
  • 2. Right-click on the webcam, and select "uninstall".
  • 3. Restart the computer. This will force the webcam driver to be reinstalled.

If the issue persists continue with these steps: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03430151 Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 10, 😎

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
