I am desperately trying to get my camera back. first it came up with a error message. so I came here and someone said to uninstall the camera and restart the computer. I did that and now I cant find the camera icon in device manager. I came back here and asked again. I pretty much got the same reply but they said to go to action and "scan for hardware changes" I don't have that option and now im lost again. I don't get it because other than my firewall which ive since removed I have made zero changes to my computer and my camera was working 2 months ago and now its not. I don't know if there is an automatic update that I don't know about. but I went through the steps if it was updated and still nothing. it said if all else fails call the company that the camera belongs to, but I uninstalled so how am I supposed to know the name of it ?

    no nothiing has worked. im at the point where i want to factory reset. when i first bought this computer i had to pay 100$ for them to set it up. if i factory reset will that take away what they did for 100$ i dont know exactly what they did but i got it at staples. so maybe their site can tell you what programs they installed when i had to pay the 100$ im at a loss and dont want to use my warranty for something that should already be working

    Hi Laura

    Your model is the MSI GE62-7RD Apache

    Never pay for device drivers, they are and always will be free. Most drivers are provided from the Windows 10 updates.

    However, like me, you have an MSI and the MSI systems have some very specific software and hardware and the MSI website is the best place to source your Drivers

    The support page for your device is listed below, if you have any trouble locating your drivers, please let me know:
