Too many issues

I have had this Dell for several years and very frustrated to find the simple basics don't work.

The camera does not work online.

The screensaver does not work.

These are basics that should not have issues. I have tried all of the fix but nothing helps.

The last Dell I buy.

Hi

IF the camera works offline, then ...

The camera not working online can be something that you chose, OR is a setting that has been defaulted to.

 

It is a Privacy/Security setting sometimes that can be overridden.

 

EG: In my Browser

Default behaviour

Customized behaviours
