OMEN by HP 15-ax230tx Laptop PC
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello.

I have a 

OMEN by HP 15-ax230tx Laptop PC

specification here:
https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05363552

The Driver for my integrated webcam was removed. 

HP Wide Vision HD Camera with dual array digital microphone is gone.

I opened Device Manager > Imaging devices. I set view to show hidden devices and it only shows my Epson printer and WSD Scan Device.

Please provide me a driver for my camera - if you don't have special for Windows 10 what alternative can I use? Please and thank you!

@Christopher_K If the webcam driver is missing, here's all you need to do, to identify/resolve the issue:

  1. Restart your computer.

    If the problem persists, continue using these steps.

  2. In Windows, search for and open Device Manager.

  3. If there is no Imaging devices category listed, select Action, then Scan for hardware changes.

  4. If Device Manager does not recognize the webcam after the scan, use Microsoft System Restore to go back to a time when the webcam was working properly.

    If problems persist, the webcam might have become unplugged internally, and the computer might require service to correct the issue.

P.S: Welcome to HP Community 😉
