So Recently, I have discovered that my camera suddenly stopped working, I tried as ALL solutions that I could find (Reinstalling the camera app, updating drivers) but it still doesn't fix, I also installed updates to my drivers and I think this is what is causing all of this. Is there any solution Possible? If so, Please Tell me.

    Hi Andrew, thanks for the update.

    Please confirm if you already installed the Camera driver with the same version installed via Windows Update.

    Please reset the Camera app via App Settings again:

    > Press the Windows + I key to open Settings.

    > Click on the "Apps" tab.

    > Click on "Installed apps."

    > Scroll through the app list or use the search bar to locate the Camera app.

    > Click the three-dots menu (...) next to Camera app and select "Advanced options."

    > Scroll down to the Reset section, and click on "Reset" (confirm the action if prompted).

    > Restart your PC and test.

    If issue persists please go back to same settings and click "Uninstall". After that please visit Microsoft Store and Install the "Windows Camera" again.

    Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions or concerns.

    John J.D.

    although I upgrade window 11 but my pc integrated camera is still not working. I checked window 11 camera setting and window 10 camera setting but I haven't found any problem . I also tried to fix the problem by pursuing the Microsoft window supporters but computer integrated camera screen is 100 % screened with dark.

    I have reset my PC.

    I tried all other solutions and despite many complaints Microsoft did not provide a solution. I tried all the troubleshooters and the solutions suggested by John J D. None of them work, so because I could not use Teams or Zoom which I badly needed I bit the bullet and reset my PC. it is a major step and time consuming but ultimately worth it. There is a bug in the software on updates that cause this issue and MS seem not be able to identify or solve it and it may not affect everyone but I suspect the configuration of my PC at the time may have caused this to happen.

    I think this is currently the only viable way of getting your camera to work.
