Error NoCamerasAreAttached 0xA00F4244. I have no external switches for the webcam. I tried everything. I tried to update, even optional updates - didn't work. Tried to switch off and on permissions - nope. Checked my antivirus and it's not that. I searched in the Device Manager and there's no driver for the webcam. Tried again and again to just do the old reboot trick but it doesn't work. And I'm sure I have one because I can see it

Hi @BowsEli 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. Thanks for bringing this to our notice.

 

I see that you are facing webcam-related issues on your system. Do not worry, we are here to fix it.

 

May I know from when are you facing this issue?

Did you make any hardware or software-related changes to it?

 

Often, the 0xa00f4244 nocamerasareattached error code is caused when the Windows Camera app is turned off. To ensure that this is not the case in your situation, press Windows Key + I to open the Settings, then select Privacy. Now, click on Camera, and toggle it On if it is set as Off.

 

I would suggest you please use the link below and perform the steps shared. Once done, let me know the outcome of it.
