Have you tried running the diagnostics? If not, run them to see if it shows any issues.
To receive assistance from Dell chat support, they need to verify the warranty status and ownership. Then you must troubleshoot with them. Click the "Get Help Now" icon on the right to start a live chat session. If already out of warranty, click here for the Dell out of warranty offering.
I faced a similar issue with my laptop camera. Here’s what helped me:
Check Privacy Settings: Go to Settings > Privacy > Camera and make sure camera access is enabled for apps.
Device Manager: Open Device Manager, look for imaging devices, and see if the camera is listed. If it’s not, try scanning for hardware changes.
BIOS Settings: Sometimes, the camera can be disabled in BIOS. Restart your laptop and enter BIOS (usually by pressing F2 or Delete during startup) to check the camera settings.
Update Drivers: Even though you've reinstalled, try downloading the latest camera drivers directly from Dell’s website.
If none of these work, it might be a hardware issue. Contacting Dell support would be the next best step. Hope this helps!
