    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    1

    Look at the function keys (F1 - F12) on your keyboard, if one of them has a camera icon, press that key or Fn + that key to unlock the webcam.

    2

    If that was not the problem, look at the camera lens above your screen, is there a small privacy slider that needs to be opened to access the webcam?

    3

    If the webcam is still not working, go to the support page for your laptop on the manufacturers website, then from there, download and re-install the version of webcam drivers they provide

    Dave, What is Fn + and where should I type it? Also, I gave Saksham Quick Assist and he restored my computer and restarted it. The camera still did not open. Milt Kramer

    I don't have any of the above.

    Had windows update 10/13/24 in the morning. when done the camera didn't work.

    Is there a way I can go back further to a different date even if there isn't one saved?
