Hi guys,
A week ago my 3yo Toshiba Satellite's webcam stopped working. It's been coincident with a Windows and Skype updates which I often use with the webcam. I have tried the Windows Troubleshooting option, and also going into the Device Manager to uninstall the device, reboot and reinstall to no avail. I have also tried scanning for viruses.
The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite P50-C but unfortunately, the Toshiba support webpage doesn't offer any webcam driver. I might try to rollback the Windows and Skype updates but I don't think this is the issue as webcam doesn't work with the Windows Camera app or Skype separately.
What's your opinion on that? I fell that it's most likely to be a hardware issue and that I'd have to dismantle the laptop to have a look.
Thank you for any thought,
Steven
