Hi,

Do you have another camera program in your PC? if you have, test if it works fine. Or does the computer built-in camera works correctly with other Apps, such as skype, etc.

I recommend you try running the Apps troubleshooter. This tool can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps.

In addition to the link provided by T.Kujala, I also suggest you update or reinstall the related driver for a test.

Regards,

Yolanda
