Product: Victus by HP 15.6 inch Gaming Laptop 15-fb0000 (598V1AV)

My device is hp laptop (Windows 11). I deleted the inbuilt webcam driver by mistake and now the webcam won't work.

The camera driver is missing from device manager so I can't reinstall driver from there.

I have already tried:
a)Troubleshooting

b)Tried"scan for hardware changes"

c)Tried "Add legacy hardware"

d)Driver is not in the'imaging devices'.

e)Tried resetting camera app.

f)Restarted the device 3-4 times.
