Going through your post, I see that the built-in webcam is not working. To assist you with this issue, I need the following details:
1) What is the product number or model number of your HP product? If unsure, please check: http://hp.care/2oPCMBG

Hi
I'm having the same issue with my laptop too.
I got windows upgrade from windows 7 to windows 10 (64 bit).
I am trying to open webcam through youcam and it says not detected and also I cant use webcam on skype because of it.
Model : HP 15-r007tx
Windows 10
Also, I couldn't see imaging devices in my device manager. I tried to get imaging devices by doing this in device manager.
ACTION -> Add legacy-> Add imaging devices -> Scan for hardware changes -> restart system.
I was able to find imaging devices after this in device manager but it shows a problem in imaging device icon. I have updated the drive of it too and it says the device is already up to date. No update required.
Need help in this
