Hi @sohit1239000,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I understand you are facing an issue with your HP Notebook 15s-fr1002tu camera is not being detected on Windows 11, here are several steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
 

1. Check Camera Privacy Settings

  • Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Camera.
  • Ensure that camera access is turned on for all apps.
  • Check that the specific app you're trying to use has permission to access the camera.

2. Check Device Manager

  • Right-click on the Start menu and select Device Manager.
  • Scroll down to Cameras or Imaging devices and expand it.
  • If your camera is listed, right-click on it and choose Enable device (if it is disabled).
  • If the camera is not listed, look under Other Devices for anything marked with a yellow warning triangle or labeled as "Unknown device." If you find it, try updating the driver (see step 3).

3. Update Camera Drivers

  • In Device Manager, right-click on your camera and select Update driver.
  • Choose Search automatically for updated driver software.
  • Alternatively, visit the HP support website to download and install the latest drivers for your notebook's camera model.

4. Reinstall Camera Driver

  • In Device Manager, right-click on the camera and select Uninstall device.
  • After the driver is uninstalled, reboot your computer.
  • Windows should automatically reinstall the correct driver when it starts.

5. Check for Windows Updates

  • Go to Settings > Windows Update and click Check for updates.
  • Install any available updates, including optional updates that may include drivers.

6. Check for Antivirus or Software Blocking

  • Ensure that your antivirus or other third-party security software is not blocking camera access.
  • Try temporarily disabling the antivirus software to see if it resolves the issue.

7. Run the Windows Camera Troubleshooter

  • Go to Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters.
  • Find Camera in the list and run the troubleshooter.

8. Reset the Camera App

  • If you're using the Camera app, reset it by going to Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
  • Find the Camera app, click on it, and select Advanced options.
  • Click on Reset.

9. BIOS Settings

  • Sometimes the camera can be disabled from the BIOS. Restart your notebook and enter the BIOS (usually by pressing F10, F2, or Esc during boot).
  • Check if the camera is enabled in the System Configuration or similar section.
