Camera and mic issues are usually a privacy setting or driver problem — easy to fix before an important call.
Fixes- Privacy settings — Windows Settings → Privacy → Camera/Microphone; allow access for your apps.
- Physical shutter/switch — many laptops have a webcam privacy slider or Fn key that disables the camera.
- Correct default device — set the right mic/camera in the app and in Sound settings.
- Update/reinstall drivers in Device Manager.
- Close other apps using the camera (only one can use it at a time).
If the device does not appear in Device Manager at all, the camera/mic module or its cable may have failed — an affordable replacement.
