Camera / Webcam not on device manager list - Windows 10

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.

Hi there - I did this and now it's gone from the device list altogether.

How do I get it back?

I've restarted.

I think you would have to go control panel, then to device manager, then view, then click on the box to "show hidden icons." However, I'm not a tech but that's what I had to do. My issue is different than yours. I'm needing help with something else altogether.

How many people are going to have to report this problem before Microsoft admits that it has screwed up our Pcs and issues a fix for it

Hey Microsoft, I have the same problem. HP Envy, webcam not working. It does not appear in device manager.

I have completely reset my Windows 10. It did not work either.

When are you going to have a solution for this?
