I tried using PowerPoint recording and it does not allow me to turn on the camera and it says "your media recording device HP TrueVision HD Camera is not set up correctly or is already in use by other apps. Please select another one or close all of the apps that are using it"
I tried restarting the pc, disabling and enabling the camera but it seems like nothing is working since I cannot access the camera on powerpoint even now. And I am worried since I will be writing an exam with moodle proctoring tool so will my camera also be affected there? Please help me fix this
