Lenovo Ideapad S340: Integrated Camera not working after trying F8, LEnovo Vantage and Device Manager changes

Hi community. After reading some members having similar issue, I have tried some of the suggested fixes, such as activating camera through F8 (nothing happened), Checking Privacy and Permissions setting in Lenovo Vantage app (all ok), and also in Device Manager I tried Updating Drivers, Disabling/Enabling camera, Un-installing and Re-installing camera. 

I have then removed Lenovo Vantage app.

No success. I tried the camera app and Skype, and still getting just a black screen instead of the camera view.

Appreciate any help with this issue.

Did EVERY GD thing and finally - the resolution was the BIOS update. Camera is now working. Lenovo is Chinese junk.

    Finally, my camera is back up https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds101944-realtek-integrated-camera-driver-for-windows-10-81-64-bit-7-32-bit-64-bit-thinkpad-helix-type-20cg-20ch-x1-carbon-type-20bs-20bt

    I had tried everything, updating drivers, BIOS both Microsoft's and Lenovo's and nothing. This driver didn't work the first time I installed it, but I simply re-run it again and thank God it work the second time. Thanks for sharing!
