My Camera is not showing in Device Manager.

Before I did a scan for any changes I noticed the name in which I named my computer during one of the requests when setting up the Windows 11 installation was not there however after the scan the name was there and when I opened it there was the option to add drivers. My question is should I proceed with adding the drivers?

I just purchased a new computer and went through the motions of installing Windows and I have the same going on in this computer. It's like a spreading cancer however when I check the properties of what folders I do have scattered around the first part of the path after the user is One Drive. Has One Drive taken over my computers?

    None of these methods address the root cause of the problem:

    1. 'CAMERA' is missing from Device Manager.
    2. None of the prescribed methods to access the camera as described in virtually every source from YouTube advice to Microsoft advice to Windows advice pay attention to the root cause.

    The camera app does not show up in the Device Manager list. This means the camera is not present in the Windows 11 software on the computer. The obvious solution is to find out where to access the app and reinstall it. Disregard that the app shows up in the apps list buried in Settings. This is boilerplate bypassed by the programmers.

    Do any of you know how to do this? Can we check the registry to see whether it is indeed in the software? If it is, how do we open it? If it isn't there, How do you find it? Again, please no described methods. They are circular reasoning in this case.

    The only other alternative is to reload the OS. Strange, but none of the experts mentioned this.
