Camera / Webcam not on device manager list - Windows 10

I can't see the switch!

There is a SIMPLE switch that can turn on/off the camera on your right side of the laptop. If that switch is off, any software will not detect it! I was troubleshooting through device manager list and i couldn't find it listed as well but Please look into the physical switch on the side of the laptop before you do anything else@@

Hi Mark

Thanks for this - model number - HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-ar0xxx

I tried to get the Device Manager part done - but when I open it from the Action button I don't have the legacy hardware option listed - just "help".

Hey there, can you just check that the camera is not actually faulty 

This is HP Envy Hardware Diagnostics Tool

Firstly, thank you for your help. I have tried this but during the 6th part of the 6 fast checks it crashed and I had to start over. I'm going to try a second time now.

However, I don't see anything that indicates that it is checking to see if the camera is operational? Where can I find that specifically?

HI there,

I have an HP Envy with Windows 10 and can't seem to get my webcam / camera to work.

It is not listed on the Device Manager list.

Thanks for the help.

On the right side of your computer about midway down you can also see from looking at the back of the computer
