Webcam Not working

[BobTheBasilisk]

Since updating my laptop to windows 10 my webcam has stopped working.

I'm sure I just need to update the driver but can't find a download for it anywhere.

Please help

Make and model?

If it's a PC specialist laptop, the Clevo chassis model will be underneath, and is usually in a format a bit like W150ERM or P775DM3

W650SF is what it says.

99% certain it's the The 15.6" Cosmos VI

You can get drivers off the Clevo site: http://www.clevo.com/en/e-services/Download/default.asp

I believe this is the one for your chassis: http://www.clevo.com/en/e-services/download/ftpOut.asp?Lmodel=W650SF&ltype=9&submit=+GO+

There isn't a specific webcam driver but in your position I would download and install Hotkey, as some Clevo laptops need this for certain features including the webcam to work

I'm running windows 10 will this make a difference as these drivers say for windows 8?

The drivers are installed by windows update afaik. Make sure it’s turned on in hotkey.

Toe enable or disable the webcam you can use Fn+F10.

Though presumably that would only work if you have Hotkey/ CCC installed?

Thank you so much Gimbet! That has fixed my problem... Seems like such a simple fix but never even crossed my mind.

Thanks for everything
