Camera / Webcam not on device manager list - Windows 10

i have lenova pc i have the same problem

Hi There,Patrica

 Ive, been on this for days with many a user and have Just decided that removing windows updates since the problems occurred is the only current viable solution to rectify this as a temporary measure.

To all users having issues, this is what I've divulged.

This Update Failed to install constantly ATM and the troubleshooter says there's nothing to report    

Checking back to when the errors started occurring

Using Maintenance Archive Reports,

The reports allows us to know how many updates to remove as there's no one culprit ascertained! Although I will be removing one by one and trying re-installation of the drivers between each update uninstall.

So Pressing Windows + Pause Break To get the System Screen UP then Selecting Security & Maintenance from the bottom left and going back to the last clear date in the report - I Am going back to hear >>

When I click view all report problems, these still 6 issues that have to be resolved, so this procedure Is what I am doing. Please dont take this under advisement as a solution, Its my own temporary measure this this problems been rectified..

Lets See how it goes.

Thanks again. Keep me posted!

Hi again

No luck with any of the suggestions I'm afraid.  I used the default admin account (eventually got it set up as the "Local Users and Groups" didn't appear for me either, but did a search and found another way) and also uninstalled the latest feature update (lot of issues with that as well, including the Start menu not working at one stage).  I eventually gave up and just re-installed the update(s).

I suppose I will just have to wait for the next update, which hopefully will fix my cam and usb 3 issue.  Disappointing as I never had an issue before and was very happy with Windows 10 and my laptop (new since last December).

Thank you again so much for all the assistance.  Very much appreciated.

Hey There Flynn, yeah its becoming a common issue these past few weeks. Windows 10 has been very stable considering since It was 1st released, yet I know the team are working across the board to get this sorted.  i Am still constantly trying to ascertain I method that will pull it back till we have the patch up date. Even A rollback or reset is not fixing the issue now. ..I got the DVD drive back on mine and the sound but not avail with the camera and its the official drivers. I am about to do a reboot and see if Disabling driver sig enforce allows it. I wouldn't recommend this as a resolve, yet I am trying due to the amount of Blue Screen Debug USB Stopcode Errors I have had trying to work around. I will let you know how it goes. may even run a dos startup and install the drivers to see if that picks them up. For now though I am baffled.
