    If the webcam is not being recognized in the Webcam central software then please follow the steps mentioned below for refreshing the drivers for webcam.

    1. Open ‘Device Manager’ by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type ‘Device Manager’, and then, in the list of results, click ‘Device Manager’.
    2. When the device manager pops up, in the list please check for ‘Imaging devices’.
    3. Under ‘Imaging devices’ check if you are finding webcam.
    4. Right click on the webcam available and click on ‘Uninstall’.
    5. Check the box which says delete the software and click ‘OK’.
    6. Restart the system and check for issue resolution.

    Also, I would suggest that you download the ‘Dell Webcam Central’  and install it.

    Please follow the steps below to run the diagnostics for the Webcam on the system.

    1.       Open the link here
    2.       Select ‘Hardware’ under ‘Choose a Diagnostic Type’.
    3.       Select ‘Camera’ under ‘Diagnostic Selector’.
    4.       Click on ‘Run Diagnostics’ button.
    5.       Let me know the results.

    Frankpod,

    Click the blue DELL-Cares username. Their profile page will appear. On the right click, "Send this user a private message". They will need the private Laptop Service Tag.

    Four our users out here, reply back with the specific Laptop model, operating system, how long you have had the Laptop, etc.
