HP ENVY LAPTOP 13-aq0xxx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I tried to use my camera with Skype yesterday and got a device not found message. It had previously worked fine leading up to this incident.

I've checked the privacy settings and these are all has they should be.

I've also found my device in the device manager list (although it's listed in hidden devices).

When I select the device on this list, under the general tab it says...

'Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)

To fix this problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer.'

 

Can anyone please help?
