Thanks for this- this is the first thing that actually worked for me despite working with Microsoft and Lenovo support. It's clearly an issue with the camera settings not hardware, and seems related to the 2004 update. However, I can't get the correct settings to stick - after restoring to defaults on Skype, when on Skype the camera is finally back in color, however after I close out and try another app it goes back to black and white. I'm hitting apply, etc, have tried rebooting and all the other tricks. Anything I'm missing / any other thoughts?
Really appreciate the useful tip!

2020-07-29T19:24:50+00:00 when I turned on my computer, there was a message of an update to windows 10. The update was done and it rebooted my laptop. Lo and behold, now my camera works in color. I didn't do anything and now it works. To all with the same problem, download the updated windows 10 and maybe your camera will work again in color. Good luck and let me know if it did. Thanks to all who tried to help me.
